Date Fished: 1/27/2008
Water Temperature: 45
Water Clarity: 2-3 feet Got a good fish story. Fished with my friend Butch on our annual striper trip on Sunday morning. Bought trout and bluebacks at Hammond's and they did well in my livewell with an air stone. Charleston ramp worked great! In the back of FB I had solid take on a downlined trout and I finally managed to wrestle a 15# striper into the boat! I rebaited and then Butch, who was eating a sandwich, yelled for me to come up and jig a spoon. So I grabbed HIS $200.00 rig and dropped a spoon over. 28 feet of water! About that time my trout rod went down again, so I ran back to check it, and sure enough the spoon rod hung up and started to go over! We reached for it, but no luck. I quickly threw out a marker buoy about where it went down. We rigged up two-ounce led sinkers with the biggest treble hooks we could find. While dragging the bottom for the rod I caught a 2# spot!! Poor guy was hungry. Finally, after 40 minutes of no luck I said, "One more cast." I felt something heavy and it was coming to the boat! I thought I had the whole brush pile. Suddenly I see a long black stick! I had hooked his rod on the very tip line guide!! Needless to say he hauled it in!! On the way home I bought a lottery ticket. I'll let you know how that goes!! Keep a tight line! CH
