4-18-13

Today I guided a group of guys from Utah and Idaho for stripers. We hit the water at first light and started throwing the worm at all of the banks that I had caught fish on earlier in the week. The wind was howling and the passes down the walls were quick but we couldn't get bit. As it got light I could see what was causing the poor bite, the water had dropped 3-4 feet in the last couple of days. Anyone who fishes much for stripers knows that when the water drops like that the bite typically turns off and the fish head down stream. We continued working our way down stream and started getting a little bit of action, the further we got down stream. As it got later in the morning the barrage of boats showed up and we were getting rocked and rolled all over the river by the wakes. We stuck at it and continued to pick up a fish here and there until we finished up around 11:00. Today was a tough day on the water but we stuck with it and got it done. In a hurry to get away from all of the boats and out of the wind, I forgot the most importat part of the day, the picture. Sorry guys!
