There are no stripers in Prairie Creek... anyone want to buy a bridge....

Got the pictures resized finally so here are a few

This guy was in a tree above PC

For those who fish in PC here is Looney he is now allowing boats within 10 feet of him, pretty neat and amazing bird and great entertainment

And there of course are no stripers destroying shad in PC.

I have seen Looney on the depth finder. lol Are you catching any of those big arches? Seems t me they are getting few and far between and far from the boat.

Oh ya we caught them, 12 to 17pnd class fish, That ball actually blacked out the graph for 30 seconds and was about 100 yards long. It was only 1 of about 10 balls that size all of them had those nasty arches on them. We had Looney on the graph a few times ourselves he is just so dam neat to watch.

We were using BIG brooder minnows HLS had some great ones yesterday, no way to castnet those shad in the wind yesterday or I bet we would have caught tons of stripers. I had the side scan on and saw many schools of stipers in the area it kept switching between it and the up and down to target the shad balls.

We were out Sunday bottom bouncing jerk baits for walleyes and could not believe how many big whites were laying on bottom in 45 feet of water in the middle of the day. Had one really big fish break a 17lb leader thinking a striper, but funny to get it in 50 feet on bottom.

Live bait didn't pay off until close to dark. Shad really moved back around 3:30

Didn't get to PC until about noon.

That was the pattern, shad were pancaked on the bottom most the day you could pick them up and then about 330 they came up in massive balls.

Have you ever tried throwing an Alabama rig at these Stripers. I did last year and had a blast. Just drove around til i saw them on the graph and start chucking.
