The "Take!"

[Paul/NH]

Maybe Im too sensitized from other boards...




My actual favorite striper fishing is light tackle spinning with sluggos or casting with plastics on jigheads, but I pretty much do the whole gamut from chunking and a little live-lining and tossing eels all the wayup to pulling the dreaded wire!!

Great thread Larry, it makes me remember how I used to catch fish.

As far as take, well there all good but my favorite would be on a fly. Because your actually pulling the line with your hands it gives you a true feeling of a fish hitting. After the initial hit feeling that line scream through your hands and laying into the fish is priceless.

The meat fisherman in me still loves a good bump on the eel. Open the bail and get ready to set the hook. As most of us know more often than not there is a good fish on the other end of the line.
