Friday on JPP
Took the kayak out on JPP again Friday morning. Beautiful day before the rain moved in. Been reading all the posts and trying to imagine I know how to catch my first striper. Trolling live bait (a bream) in over about 30' of water when I saw a ton of motion on the fish finder, - like a tornado shifting around. Within seconds the water 20' around me exploded with fish chasing bait. I put on a plastic-shad-looking bait and reeled it quick across the surface. A fish took it down first cast, and I landed a nice 17" largemouth. Was expecting a striper? Anyone know if largemouth school like that in Priest? Or was he hanging out with his cousins? Thanks and good luck.
