Stump bumper Posted May 14, 2017 Posted May 14, 2017 Ron is was just a little south of you near point 5 and had top water action from about 6:30 to 7:30. Some of the biggest bait balls I had ever seen. The wopper plopper was tearing up the bass but I know there were some stripers hitting top that would not hit it. Everything was chasing 3-4 inch shad up to the top in 70 feet of water. I threw a ned rig out and caught 5 small mouths feeding with the green fish. The big small mouths were feeding under the spots were you would expect large mouth. Strange year. I am going to need a new trolling motor battery to pull anything but bottom bouncing for eyes does sound fun, I tried spooning rocks for awhile with no success. All the fish I was marking were in deep water suspended, I could not find anything relating to the bottom. Dan the fisherman 1
Ron Burgundy Posted May 14, 2017 Author Posted May 14, 2017 I had planned on getting there at daylight in hopes of some Striper top water action but I missed that by about 6 hrs and was hurting from my sun burn so I checked out before the evening top water bite . Gone but not forgotten Martin Ford
