WOW!!! What a day!!

Honestly, this was a day I'll never forget if for nothing more that the quantity of large fish. Holy smokes I have never seen so many large stripers. We caught fish on top to 42 or 44 or something... I lost track. Fish drifting scup with no weight and fish on the bottom. We put 8 fish over 40" all the way to 48.5 in my boat today!!! \:D Plus we had many pick-ups and big runs where the fish got off.

And what's even more amazing is the fact that Blaine tripled that!!! Bennett scored real well too with I don't know how many big fish. And Jon H showed up after a few phone calls to nail his share!!!

Truely a great day and so much fun to share it with a bunch of ctf'ers..... even those of you we talked to on the cell phones while you were stuck at work!!! :p

Thank you fishing gods!!!!!!!!

I'm feeling very fortunate.... it was an honor to see all that on the water today!! \:\)

Yeah! sounds like a great day. While we worked and read about it.Great Pics Pat!

I am sure you will remember it Pat. I wished everyone could experience that once in their life. Top Water action is hard to beat. The big fish is fun too. I enjoy the feeling of the big pull from the big cows.

Lets see what Blaine has for photos too.

Nobody is born with all the knowledge, we need to learn from each other!

Awesome report. Wish I was there to enjoy the feast. My personal best so far is 36". I'd be happy with a 40" but to see how many fish over 40" that you guy's caught is incredible.
Congrats guy's!!
