Fished last weekend with Josh Sutton from Southern Wind guide service, he uses my thumper so he spent some time showing me how he uses his. Last weekend was awesome and this weekend was epic! The fish were super responsive to the thumper and stayed under the boat! Josh had double limits and a really nice over, Tyler had 30 and Ivan and I caught 18! With the temperature dropping the fish are really responding!

Tyler caught more fish this morning trolling to find active schools and then thumping and slabbing to catch them!

I would try swimbaits along the edges of flats or Tyler was trolling a hellbender pet spoon combination and dropping slabs on the school when he hooked up. That worked for him all weekend.

Hey Eric, this is Tylers buddy Travis. We were fishing my boat that weekend and had great success with the Hell bender pet spoon combo like you said. Fishing in 20-30ft of water. Most of the fish seemed to be on the smaller side that time and we had trouble getting deeper down to target the larger fish. Couldn't drop the spoon down fast enough on them. Have you been having luck catching live bait lately? Im used to finding them in the platter flatts area in the spring but haven't searched for them since then. The thumper is a great addition to the fishing arsenal. Highly recommend.

Hey Travis, the Striper are pushing the shad into the coves pretty shallow. I have been able to catch them when I see them flickering on top. You have to weed through the extra large ones to get the 4” fish that I was getting the most bites on.

We went this morning, got on a bunch of them stacked up by the BC sign at Briar Creek, in about 35 foot of water. Looked like an exploding volcano underwater on the fish finder. We had caught some dinks, and 4 good box Sandies earlier. But trolled through this stack and pulled a couple 7 pounders and a 9 pounder out.

Wind was tough today so found them in Creek branches off the main lake. We caught them on smaller shad and lucked out and caught a nice box and some sandbass during some mid afternoon topwater action.

Thumpers and live shad are continuing to produce! Take good care of your bait and the bites will come. Ernesto caught a limit of Striper, 11 catfish and this nice over... [Linked Image]

Nice! I went yesterday (Monday) when the clouds were covering and temps were around 57, fished from 0700 until 1300 all on the flats by the white cross. Fished moved fast, plenty of schools and thousands of birds all day. Fishing was epic for me. Most of my fish were 24 inches to 20 inches. Kept my two overs and 10 unders. All caught mostly on a 2oz slab, some on top. I had a rather big over break my line at the boat as I tried to scope it up. Took off with my $16.00 Whopper Plopper!!! [Linked Image]

Awesome except for the whopper plopped loss! Looks like the birds are back in force and will find the schools! Ernesto had a big one break his line Monday as well! With all the bait out there, should be some fat line breaking and maybe even lake record breaking fish!

This weekend was awesome! I fished with a buddy boat Saturday... birds were working from Mack Creek across to Wachita and just outside of Lakeside. My fishing buddy wanted to catch shad and try out his thumper. We caught bait and headed out to the main lake just outside of lakeside. Only marked a few fish but turned in the thumper to see what would happen. The fish came in a few at a time and we usually caught 1 out of every school that passed through. We ended up with 10 box and 2 overs before we ran out of small shad. Alex caught 7 and lost a big fish when it ran into the trolling motor. We saw guide boats coming back super early so I am sure there was action under the birds.

Ed trolled that afternoon and caught 28 but he cheats and catches them 3-5 at a time on the A rig!

Josh (Southern Wind) crushed them as usual and has his limits pretty early...

After Kyle and his buddies did do well on swimbaits, Several of us fished yesterday. I tried artificials and A rigs under the birds, then thumped with shad along the edges. Fish keyed in on the smaller shad which are harder to catch than the 5-6” variety. We caught about a dozen altogether with most being on the shad and one over on the A Rig. I had a YouTube subscriber buddy boat with me. They tied off behind me and caught a few fish as well including a first Striper for this young man!

Tyler did well using the Hellpet (crank bait/ spoon)combination. Tyler trolls until he gets bit by the right size fish, then he slabs that active school. He showed George that technique and George caught a nice box full as well...

Ernesto caught a nice box of fish thumping with shad.

Ed caught 18 on A rigs along the edges including a nice triple hook up and a 6lb over.

The wind was rough this weekend so I waited until this afternoon to go fishing. Left Highport about 3 and ran into birds by the island. Picked up 6 box on A rigs and Hellpets using a #12 Tony Acetta. First time afternoon fishing and first time just trolling but didn’t have much time to fish and didn’t want to chase bait. Was fun trip!

I had Mike and Mike with me and little Mike outfished both of us. He put 6 of the 16 fish in the boat before we ran out of bait and called it a day!

I did a video from last weeks trip. I had taken the hammer out of my thumper and forgotten to put it back so didn't have my thumper but used the splasher and my friends thumper to call in fish. Bait depth control and fresh bait were critical to success. We easily missed as many fish as we caught but Mike and Mike had a great time...

Guys fished yesterday using thumpers with live bait and slabs, sassy shad and trolling and caught fish all ways. They CPR’d a nice 31” over! [Linked Image]

Had a great day fishing yesterday with Brad (Circle B Guide Service) and Jerry (Jerry’s Guide Service). We were fishing a minor cold front and wanted to try using the thumper with deadsticking and bait. We hit several spots and thumped in lots of fish at each spot, but the fish had lockjaw… We ended up catching 8 striper and about 8 nice sandbass. The striper were all fat and healthy and already carrying eggs! We probably caught half of the fish on deadstick and half of the fish on bait. As the water temperature cools and the bait slows down, the thumping and deadsticking is only going to get better and better! If you are looking for some guides to put you on fish while deadsticking, give these guys a call! [Linked Image]

I prefished with Captain Josh from Southern Wind Guode service today. Fish were up north so we caught bait and started Deadsticking. We caught three on the first drift (I should say he since he caught them all). We then decided to check a few spots for bait fishing. Each spot we caught a few fish including this one which is the biggest i have caught in a while. [Linked Image]
The thumper was calling the fish in and a few were hungry. Right about 11 the wind died and the deadstick bite became real tough.

Thanks for the help catching bait this morning Eric. I'll be glad when is not below freezing in the mornings. That icy deck and throwing a net is no fun. The afternoon went pretty well with bait, but the dead stick bite was not as good as this morning. Fish are still relating to the creek chanels and ledges but the muddy water has pushed them a little further West. One thing I have noticed the last few times out is I have to be a little more patient when I spot lock with bait. Sometimes it's 15 minutes or more before the school will lock under the boat.

I fished Saturday in the crazy wind just to see how the new boat ran. It was pretty awesome to be able to fish on a day when I normally have to stay home! We only caught 2 on deadsticking because my one drift sock only kept us down to 1.2 and the bite was at about .7. It you went too fast or too slow, no bites!

Brad and Josh and some of the other guys all crushed fish as usual! My drift sock is on order!

It’s also a good time to do a jug line

The sand bass looks as if someone put an air hose in its mouth, pure fatness.

Deadsticking has been interesting the past few days. There are fish everywhere and when you find the hungry ones the action is intense! Here are some pictures from Ed’s trip today... Deadsticking has been a challenge! You have to find the hungry fish but when you do the action is intense! @musseredward has been catching plenty! If you want to book a trip with him, reach out to him at +1 (903) 647-5102! Our monthly giveaway is exactly what he is using to catch these fish while using his thumper!

I fished texoma yesterday, thumping and using tandem rigged Deadsticking flukes. I caught 2 but marked fish and bait... my Buddy Ed fished today thumping and slow rolling swim baits. He caught 7 with 3 over 20”... fishing is getting better and better! It’s not quite where it was before SNOVID, but we are still marking bait and catching a few [Linked Image]

Texoma has been interesting the past few days Ed has been alternating between thumping and throwing paddle tail swimbaits shallow on cloudy days and thumping and deadsticking on sunny days. Yesterday was a Sonny day and he and Aaron got on a nice school of overs Deadsticking... these fish liked the thumper and stuck underneath his boat enabling them to catch several nice ones!

Fishing is definitely getting better if you can find the active fish! If you do the fishing is downright epic. Ed is alternating between Zoom Swimmin Superfluke and deadsticking based on whether it’s cloudy or sunny. He is still putting good fish in the boat although box fish are becoming scarcer as the fish fatten up for spawn. I am running a giveaway this month on my website for some Deadsticking tackle so check it out and enter the contest!

Striper have been interesting. Huge schools of fish in most of the usual spots, but they are not always hungry. Each spot seems to be hit or miss, 40 fish one day 8 the next and another spot has 8 the first day and 40 the next. I fished Saturday with Jacob from Keepin it Reel Guide Service and we threw on some Captain Mack's A rigs to cover lots of water and find some hungry fish... We ended up catching several striper including 2 nice ones on A rigs!

My friends and I fished with Ed from Ed’s Guide Service Sunday... we left Little Mineral and found a fast moving school of Striper working outside the marina but they disappeared before we could get the A rigs down. We then hit the edges of the river channel and picked up a double of overs on our first rig and then overs on the next run. It took all of 30 seconds to hook up once we started trolling. After that bite slowed we did some precision trolling by reeling up over the points and dropping down deeper on the other side. We caught about 12 overs 2 larger box fish and some smaller box fish that we released to fight again. The fish I kept and cleaned were all males. Once the spawn is over it’s going to get epic!

Looks like fishing is going from good to epic. Lots of people are catching fish! Ed is still trolling but other people are catching easy quick multi-person limits with live shad! [Linked Image]

Fishing has been amazing recently. Ed from Ed’s Guide Service is still catching nice fish trolling and Josh from Southern Wind Guide Service and Brad from Circle B have also been catching them on cut bait using splashers and / or thumpers... with summer starting it’s going to get really busy on Texoma, but the fishing is amazing!

Fishing was pretty epic today! I met up with Windtalker from the TFF and we met up with Ed from Ed’s Guide Service who was on a hot bite. His thumper had them stirred up and all three boats were able to catch fish. Ed and I headed in and I had to pick up the family. We returned about 40 min later and turned on my thumper and the fish fired up again. We caught about 20 before the kids were tired and we headed in. The live bait bite is amazing right now!

Fishing is still off the charts! Cut bait or live bait results in instant bites! Some really nice fish getting caught as well. Ed did some prefishing today and caught a nice 12lb fish on cut bait… his customers have caught nice fish and easy limits on recent trips as well!

Striper fishing remains awesome! Trolling has picked back up with Ed from Ed’s guide service picking up some nice fish on Captain Mack’s A rigs. Bait fishing has also been awesome with multiple guides reporting limits, sometimes the limits are fast and other times they have to grind it out… [Linked Image]

Did a quick video from last weeks trip. This is how I use my thumper to attract fish. I probably have about 12 spots on the lake that I prefer to fish and normally only have to hit 2-4 to draw in fish with the thumper. This was the first stop I fished at and the same spot I have fished for the past two weekends. As you can imagine, fishing conditions change constantly but I always manage to catch a few...

In one word, EPIC. Striper are feeding on shad in deep water 70’ . You can thump and catch them on bait in 40’ of water but right now, they push a few shad to the top and the topwater bite is on fire! Ed is trolling and catching three at a time and others are throwing topwater and catching 30+ 20” fish! If you want to book a guide for this hot bite [Linked Image]

I live bait fish most of the time but every once in a while I like to break out the Captain Mack’s A Rigs and catch them up! I fished with Ed from Ed’s Guide Service today and we caught 15 fish today but only 2 box fish! Make sure you remember to squeeze the tail and push on the fish when you measure it! We caught lots of 19” fish that stretch to 20 1/4”! Thumpers will help you catch more fish! Get your own thumper at www.thumpemupfishing.com!

Saturday I fished with a group of friends in my boat and several other friends on the water. We planned to hit the dam for some topwater action and then head to some other spots and use our thumper. There was a huge boat show at the dam but we didn’t see much action so took off in different directions. We stopped at Colbert then headed to Mac Creek. We picked up a couple of small box fish and catfish then chased topwater from Oil well point to soldier creek but they were all 4" striper. Got a report that there were a few fish near the islands so we headed over there. We saw a ton of boats and 1-2 fish scattered on the graph. We had three fish on the graph and a troller near us hooked up so we decided to stop and turn on the thumper. The graph lit up and the fish stayed under us for about 30 minutes until we ran out of bait and called it a day. Was a great trip!

Fishing has shifted a little from deep water ledges to shallower flats. Ed from Ed’s Guide Service caught these today using slabs and live bait. If you thump in shallow water, slow your speed down dramatically to just put a few vibrations in the water!

Striper have been changing patterns somewhat, sometimes feeding shallow and sometimes feeding deep, Kamil caught these in 50’ of water using his thumper and silver slabs… September fishing should be epic as they start to settle into their fall patterns! Please contact me if you need a guide! [Linked Image]

We fished multiple spots today and found fish at several spots. The morning bite was very sporadic with a few fish at each spot. Later in the morning we stopped on the flats west of Wachita point and made one long drift using shad and slabs. The four of us finished catching our overs and picked up a few box fish as well. It ended up being a pretty epic day. The fish really responded to the thumper and stuck with us for the entire 45 minute drift.

I was able to shoot a video of the last trip we took. It was pretty epic. I was able to look at the graph times and we had fish under us for over an hour. I used every trick in the book to keep them there (changing speed, chum etc.) This should be a really helpful video on how to catch fish using a thumper...

Fishing is still off the charts! Ed from Ed’s Guide Service, Brad from Circle B Guide Service and Josh from Southern Wind Guide Service are all catching limits thumping and slabbing or thumping with bait! Additionally Brad is starting the jug line/ striper combo trips and catching some nice cats in addition to striper limits!

The birds are back! This is always a fun time to throw topwater, live bait or slab with a thumper or one of the most productive techniques is trolling! Ed sent these over today! We shot this video last year but it is still one of my favorites!

The fish are really looking healthy this year with plenty of bait in the water. Deadsticking this winter can break some arms!

I took two friends and their sons out Sunday for a father son trip, we saw a few birds working and spotlocked under them. They quickly moved on and dispersed so we decided to turn on the thumper and see what would happen. We had fish drifting under us for a couple of hours, they were never really sticky but they were hungry and we had fish biting frequently. We ended up having to stop and catch bait and came back ans. Set up near the first spot and picked up where we left off. We ended up with 40 fish and the kids had a blast! I really like using the thumper with kids because we didn’t have to look for fish either time, we were able to get plenty of fish without running all over the lake! [Linked Image]

I created a video of our trip last weekend. It was pretty chaotic because there was a pretty constant bite!

We caught a nice catfish and a mess of striper on Friday using the thumper and shad but I think Josh from Southern Wind Guide Service has us slightly beat.

I took some of my coworkers and one of their husbands fishing. This was their first time really fishing and they were super excited and had a blast. Erin wanted to catch a catfish so she got to fight with a big blue! It’s really fun to take new people fishing and show them the amazing sport that we all love, no matter if they are kids or grownups!

Deadsticking has officially begun! It’s still a little warm from a water temperature standpoint but Ed from Ed’s Guide Service tried anyway with this result! If you want to brave the cold give me a call to take advantage of the hot fishing!

Texoma is on fire! Fished 2 weeks ago with Ed from Ed’s guide service and fished today with friends with same result. Hit 1-2 spots and thumped in a few fish then kept looking and found lots of hungry fish. This was the maiden voyage of my new boat and we were able to thump up a four person limit and some overs plus a few other species. The water was a little warm for Deadsticking so we used bait I stead..[Linked Image]

Thanks Chris! I really like this boat great for fishing or dragging kids around the lake! Plus the trolling motor batteries and the thumper are in the console so keeps the noise down!

This trip was an exciting trip since it was the first trip in my new Sea Hunt Ultra 229 that I bought from Greg Walker at Coastline marine! I am still rigging up the boat to get it the way I want it but will shoot a video when I get it all set up! Striper are still feeding heavily to put on weight for the winter and everything is catching fish right now! We started off fishing structure with our thumper and put several fish in the boat then I received a report from Ed that the birds were working across the lake. By the time we made it there… no birds. We started looking for fish on structure and found a big school. We spotlocked, dropped baits, hit the thumper and it was on! The fish stayed under the boat the whole time and we picked up an easy limit of box fish and a couple of nice overs and were done by 11… There were no finicky fish today, they hit hard and we probably landed 50% or more of the bites.
Special thanks to Ed from Ed’s guide service for the intel on the birds! Contact Ed Musser- (903) 647-5102 if you want to book a trip with him Want to get your own thumper, check out www.thumpemupfishing.com

Does anyone go this Friday? It is windy and I don't have much experience at Texoma lake. Do any suggestions, please?

Isaacfisher, first and foremost there is a high north wind on Friday (19mph) which means several parts of the lake will be incredibly dangerous. You have to have the right boat for those conditions! I have a 22ft center console for that reason. Depending on where you launch from there are some parts of the lake that will be safe to fish on the north shore. If you still plan to go, give me a call 972 689 4245 and I can let you know what I know as of today.

Yesterday I was running across the lake to a spot when I saw a cluster of red dots on my graph. I stopped the boat and there were tons of fish I. The main channel. We started thumping and fishing and kept fish under us and were able to limit out in about 90 min. All 30 were solid fish with a few overs mixed in. You have to check a few spots to find ones that want to feed but when you do fishing is amazing! Here are some picks from today thanks to Ed from Ed’s Guide Service! We are letting the big overs go! They need to spawn! If you need a guide this weekend give me a call! 972 689-4245!

Notaguide, no, I prefer to use live bait since it makes it easier to fish multiple rods. I also use topwater, swimbaits, slabs, deadsticking and trolling to catch striper.

Depends on the time of year for sure! Right now they are in the coves so 1-2 throws and we are done…. Once they move into the deep water then it’s a 2-4 hour ordeal to catch them…

I spent the weekend building thumpers and living vicariously through my friends… some epic fishing this weekend with great reports of fish caught thumping and deadsticking! Ed from Ed’s Guide Service caught the biggest one but Brandon had a nice one as well! Giants were released to catch again!

Wow what a weekend deadsticking on Texoma! Ed and I tried N on Saturday however there was not much wind in the areas we fished. The thumper brought them in they just didn’t bite aggressively! We managed about 7 and a nice blue cat! I used a tandem tig with a 1/2 oz jighead on a dropper loop and a 1.5 oz jighead on the bottom. Caught mine on bubblegum and pearl zoom flicks dipped in Chartreuse Spike it! Matt limited out west also using pearl with chartreuse! Justin and Doug landed some nice ones as well…. From Justin “A bit of a learning curve with dead sticking. What we finally found that worked for us were pink flukes, drop them down to the bottom and slowly slowly reel them up a few reels and drop back down”

Ed went west and found them today! [Linked Image]

There's always a few mixed in. We never really differentiate on Texoma since they are naturally occuring... We have also been catching some magnum sandbass...

This was our last live bait trip of the year! With the weather and water temperatures getting colder, we are switching to blended trips deadsticking with artificial lures and also mixing in live bait as well. When live bait fishing, we attempt to spotlock and use our thumper to bring fish to our boat. Once the fish start showing on our graph, we will cut shad to get the fish fired up and ready to feed! In our first spot, we brought fish into the boat and had a few fire up, but we were not getting anywhere near the number of bites we should have. We switched to our second spot, spotlocked for a few minutes and then released the spotlock and started drifting. That little extra movement on the baits enticed more bites. We use Reaction Tackle indicator braid to show our exact depth and 2 oz weights to hold the bait at that exact depth. The thumper is critical to getting fish to investigate and come to your boat!

Wow! That's a nice bunch of fish! Being new to the Texoma lingo, what is considered the reference point(s) of where "North" and "West" begin. Is there a "mid-lake"?

I launch at Little Mineral so to me, North is Alberta Creek or Further North and West is West of Juniper Point...

Deadsticking is very frustrating to me because the fishing varies in some cases hour by hour not to mention day by day. Ed from Ed’s Guide Service fishes every day and loves deadsticking. He uses a thumper, a two jig combo with flukes and garlic and tries to drift at .7 MPH. Yesterday he found a school, drifted across them and caught nothing even though the fish piled under his boat. He tried a different spot for an hour, came back, repeated his drift and caught these including a 34” fish…. Sometimes it’s all about patience and perseverance! [Linked Image]

I had a thumper customer call me looking for a guide on Texoma! I fish with Ed’s Guide Service, Circle B Guide Service and Southern Wind Gide Service every chance I get! Fortunately Brad was available and was able to get them on some fish using his thumper in deep water! On bluebird sky and low wind days the striper seem to move to deeper water…

Ed is out for a few weeks and I sat out the wind today but the fishing was pretty good mid lake! Got some reports from other guides that they were catching fish mid lake which is awesome! Ready for the shad spawn to get them fired up!

Thanks! I fell in love with Texoma! It’s such an amazing lake! I wish I could fish everyday but have to deal with that 4 letter word that takes up my weekdays and then have kids stuff on the weekends. I know people that can and do fish almost every day and are willing to share information with me and don’t mind me sharing it with you all! Hopefully it helps anyone making a long trip (or even a short trip) to fish Texoma! Between my thumper business, the occasional guided trips that I run (mostly instructional trips on how to use thumpers) and a lifetime of fishing memories, anything I can do to give back is worth it!

Fishing on Texoma has been hit or miss in March! Fish are spawning and even when you thump in a school they are lock-jawed and it’s hard to get bites. They are either hungry and willing to hit deadsticked lures and bait or not. We have been trolling Thundersticks 200’ back or Captain Mack’s and JD and Ed have been catching them either way! Can’t wait for the spawn to finish and the striper to focus on feeding! There are plenty of healthy fish! [Linked Image]

Since the striper fishing is a little hit and miss, Josh Sutton from Southern Wind Guide service offers jugline and striper fishing trips. I fished with Josh and clients Friday and we caught 4 over 40” with the biggest going 48” and 57 pounds. We kept 30 catfish to fillet for a Homeless No More Church in Fort Worth catfish fry!

Striper action was better this afternoon and Brad from Circle B guide service thumped in a bunch in 17’ of water! Thumpers do work in shallow water!

It’s about to get crazy! The striper will spawn and be hungry!

. Try this cleaning technique and recipe (starts at 4:40. My 7 year old and 9 year old daughters absolutely love them!





The water temperature has been right around 60 degrees so they should be spawning! Last trip all the big ones like this were males!

Right there with you. They taste like dirt to me even if its fried. I fill my freezer with red snapper in June andJuly and leave the stripers for whoever else wants to eat them.

Was able to finish the striper/catfish video with Josh Sutton from Southern Wind Guide Service! More catfish than striper this time and I missed a few nice striper but the catfishing was amazing!


Striper fishing is really heating up! Ed caught 5 at the same time today! [Linked Image]

My buddy Ed from Ed's guide service fishes almost every day. He normally bait fishes with shad but if he catches a sunfish he hangs onto it. We were in a pretty constant bite on Sunday when he pulled a sunfish out of the bait tank. He cut off the dorsal and decided to give it a shot. We knew it would take a while to get bit and it did but it was the best fish of the day! He let the fish play with it until it finally buried the rod...

I was finally able to put together the full video of the last trip! You have to love spring fishing! The fish are hungry, super responsive to thumping and easy to catch! These fish didn't tap the bait, they slammed it! This is my favorite time of year for fishing!

Not sure if the fishing is epic-er or epic-est but essentially the pattern is the same, go to the ledges, drop bait, turn on the thumper, catch a limit in an hour then go troll for a bit to try to pick up a couple of bigger overs. The fishing is fast and furious and about as good as it gets!

Nice bunch of fish!

I wonder if fish are being caught in the main part of the lake yet? Little Mineral area.

Thanks for the update!

They have moved from the rivers to the main lake so you can pretty much find them anywhere!

Any tips for this evening or tomorrow morning? Got some unexpected time off and made a last minute trip to meet my brother here at Texoma for his birthday tomorrow. Last year same dates we wore them out throwing topwater on banks/points of the main lake(little mineral area). That wasn’t the bite for us last night or this morning. We caught 4 striper between 4 people then one more slabbing the river channel edge. I was expecting the topwater/slab bite to happen so I didn’t bring a cast net or a bait tank, but I’m willing to buy a cheaper one if I absolutely had to have live bait. Any tips appreciated. Thanks

There are plenty of guides who just fish artificials so hopefully Chris will chime in. If you see any topwater action, take advantage of it with topwater or sassy shad. Look N of the islands in the 15’ flats and deeper off of the points and try sassy shad deeper off the points. We have been catching them in the 30-40’ range using bait so you can vertically slab there as well. Most of us use thumpers and some have thumpers and splashers to hold them under your boat. You can also troll along the river channel edge and catch some that way!

Fishing is still good but a super early bite! Striper are stacking up on spawning shad early then shutting down after that. Ed from Ed’s guide service Is finding them super early! They are hungry and you can get multiple fish hooked at the same time! Book a trip now if you want fast and furious action and don’t mind getting up early! [Linked Image]

I just started back fishing the lake. The early bite has been good from 6:30-7:15 using top waters. The fish are all over so no magical spot. Go fish your favorites!

Looks like the rain slowed the early bite. Hopefully the early morning topwater bite isn't over for the season.... Only caught 1 this morning. Others I spoke to had the same luck. Guides were moving spots early so I assume they transitioned to the deep fish early. Any reports are appreciated.

Yeah yesterday was not good where I was. No topwater bite and I saw several guides resort to trolling.

Striper we’re on the flats yesterday in 15-30 feet of water. People either spotlocked and let the schools come to them or drifted across the flats. We drug shad or cut shad along the bottom. Yesterday my bait died for some reason so we used shad fillets and caught them with those. I saw no topwater anywhere and the striper were stuck to the bottom.

Guys fishing the deep ledges with thumpers and bait are also doing well but you need to be there at 5:30 and be done at 7.

I probably saw the most beautiful sunrise i have ever seen! [Linked Image]
