I headed out this morning about 9.  It was super foggy on the lake.  Water temp was 52.  So I set my lines out  and proceeded to troll. I messed about for a couple of hours without a bite.  Finally as I began to get lines in to move spots a rod goes off. I have my first bite. I let it run for 10 sec or so and pick up the rod for the fight. I have a smile ear to ear and then it quickly turns to a frown.  It pops off.  Didn't break the line, it just came off the hook (which never has happened).  That was a sign of things  " not to come" as I couldn't buy another bite the rest of the day. I tried 3 other spots with nothing.  It was a tough day for me.  That's fishing though. I'm going to try again tomorrow or Wednesday.  Hopefully I can get some pay back on them striper the next trip.

Sounds like a tuff day - but I bet its still better than being at worrk.

It was a nice day.  So can't complain.   Just gotta take the good days with the bad

I started about 11 went to HB bluff. Set to lines out 30 min later got first hit but no hookup I think the planner board was to tight so she spit the hook. 

About an hr later got a good hook set on a 12 lb 

Seen large bait ball  the were working  the edges but no other takers 

I will be out again I the morning
