That's my youngest. Hes eats, sleeps, and poops fishing. You have to be careful taking him cause he'll out fish ya if you arn't on your game. He got some new gear for Christmas and he was able to get it good and broke in.

Nice work Chad!!!!!!! those thumpers are the [censored]. stripers have been very erratic since the end of November but the sandies have been everywhere along with small 8-10" stripers. Once ya think you got em figured out they vanish, its been day to day. Lately I have apparently been picking the wrong days to go

Awesome!!! Consider slow drifting and thumping if stationary doesn’t work on certain days. I stationary fished last winter with moderate success but now drift and thump and it’s wayyyy easier. Almost no need to even locate the fish if you’re in a good area! They come to you and have a snowball effect on the numbers growing as you drift!

Almost no need to even locate the fish if you’re in a good area! They come to you and have a snowball effect on the numbers growing as you drift! I tried that the last hr or so we were on the water, and your right. I marked across a number of fish on a point that lead out onto a flat. I got up wind of the fish and threw out the drift sock. I started over deeper water and had fish in the boat within minutes and as we drifted the numbers on the graph kept growing. I cannot wait to get back out there. Nice work Chad!!!!!!! those thumpers are the [censored]. stripers have been very erratic since the end of November but the sandies have been everywhere along with small 8-10" stripers. Once ya think you got em figured out they vanish, its been day to day. Lately I have apparently been picking the wrong days to go Thanks Carl! It was nice to go out and catch a mess of them Kanon was stoked. Hope to see on the water soon!!

Congratulations! Thumping makes fishing easier, especially for the kids! They like to catch (and most don’t like having to tap the boat!)
