July 4th..

As you can see I've had Stripers on the brain for while. We got out at first light with the intention of getting out of there early before the heat was too bad. Fished first light till 11:30am for plenty of hard pulling schoolies. Nothing big today but great numbers of 4-6lb fish in isolated areas. Good numbers of Mesquitos too! Bastards tore me up! The fly and Light tackle artificial bite is all you could ask for right now. Sadly, the fishing will taper off to a normal summer pattern here shortly when water temps start getting really warm.
