I keep casting plugs and shads until I can't feel my arms! This wasn't the only fish hooked at the ladder today! Steve had one swipe a Rapala and I got a small LM that ate a saltwater plug! Got myself a short as well as this keeper river Striper. Fish measured in @ 31 inches! Put up a hell of a fight as well. I wasn't necessarily prepared using my Walleye rod with 10lb PP and 8lb Fluoro leader, LOL! What a rush when they come into the freshwater and smack the crap out of big plugs! My adrenaline is still going strong from this morning! Great weekend of fishing for sure!!! YEA BUDDY!!! TIGHT LINEZZZZZZ!!!

That's sick. Do most of them ever get past the ladder or do they just hang out there?

Maaaaaaaagic touch. Awesome lineside FE. Awesome.

Just left the sedge banks and played with the rodents on bloods. I'd much rather hook your catch any day of the week!
