I really should just copy n paste this report from the last few..

8 stripers from 15 to 25lbs... #7 Flicker shad Pearl White

18 whites from miniature size to about 3.5pnds Basspro XPS Spoon

Same dang location again...

I really don't get it I have been posting this for what 2 or 3 weeks now and they are still there and except for Doc, Nick and WC and a couple friends of mine no one else is taking advantage of it. I suggest going if you can its not rocket science.

I wish I could take advantage of it. Thanks for the report.

[Feathers and Fins]

Jerry its the stupidest thing I think I have ever seen, they just flat out wont leave the area.

Or bite my jigging spoon.

I was on a massive school bit they were moving around so fast, as soon as I would graph the., I'd drop the spoon and watch it fall. By the time it sank 20ft, the screen would slowly clear. Darn buggers!!!

I've got some screen shots I'll post later after dinner (with the wife). (Put the phone away. ....Put the phone away....geez!)

[Feathers and Fins]

LOL, Ya your moving school made for some fun for me after you left. I spooned them and then sent you such a pretty picture lol

I think y'all just have the magic touch! I tried that spot once last week and once the week before. Only managed two whites. Tried spoons, jigs, and flicker shad.

When he says there are fish there........he's not kidding. See below.

While Scott was schmoozing with another boater, I had marked some stripers in 30-40ft over a 60ft drop on a previous trolling run with flickers. I went back to those spots to try a 1/2oz white jigging spoon. I found the stripers in 20-30ft so they were moving up. I couldn't stay on the fish long enough to keep them in my graph. I would find them, drop the spoon and count to about 8 before I could hit 10ft, thus 16 seconds later and the fish would have move out of my graph already. I had a hard time keepin on the fish. Then this massive school appeared and I snapped a screenshot. I got one nibble. The spoon was totally in the middle of them several times. I figured I'd snag one it was so thick. Seems like the bite picked up around 3 after I left. I've read several reports where the bite picked up around 3 and after.

Final shot. This is the one that got my blood pressure going.
