Met Kurt at russos at 8. Fogbound. Hit a couple of spots in Franks until it lifted. Buzzed to Mandy. Nothing home. Mildreds...banged a nuisance largemouth on the Lucky Craft.




Had another chase it to the boat.

Got a call from Turhan who was putting in at Lauritzens so we made the high speed run west.

Big Break was quiet so we rolled to Sherman.

Found a pod of dinks in some dirty stuff.




Banged a handful there and split for franks. Some hack was on my stuff so we rolled off to the NW end. Found a willing school there and banged 10 or so schoolies.






Up tight to the tules in 4 feet of water just out of the current. Still biting after dark. The Lucky Craft Slender Pointer (SP125) blue back was on. No fish on top at all, no looks on the rattle traps. Kurt tried swimbaits, hir jigs, kitchen sink. They wanted the Lucky Craft. 15 fish stuck today, not bad for winter.

That's a fat LB Patrick! Good job getting the leadbomber on some schoolies. Spring is around the corner.

That is a great looking largemouth! Great work on them stripers too!

"Full Speed Fishing" !!

I was knee deep in the muck inside Prospect Island a few years ago with a bunch of "Full Speed Fishing" folks trying to rescue the few living fish that were stranded by BuRec. (Of course there were lots of dead fish).

Good show.

p/s You might have caught the last stripers of the winter if indeed the El Nino "storm door" opens up as forecasted for Sunday going forward. Maybe all the rain will stir up the "primordial soup" and kick start the delta cycle again.

nice job mr.pickeral , year round stripers !! still waiting for my phone call lol

Kurt who was aboard for this report spent several days mucking it at Prospect as well. And yes I doubt I will be striper fishing again until march or so!
