Well after the frustrations of the three-day weekend and seeing that pile of fish I just drove all the way up here to fish tomorrow morning. The old lady tells me I'm a sick unit LOL. If any of you out there tomorrow give me a shout on channel 68. Early birds by Handel.

What was the down temp at 65ft down? The temps out if Henderson have been all over the place.

Beautiful out there today... Little Crappie and I set up at first light on his boat and could barely keep rods in the water from 630-7. All FF today. If only we could have capitalized on all of our takes. We started off doubling up on riggers, the first one that fired got off while the second one chewed thru the 50lb leader. Fly gone.

With both rigger rods still not put back down, a dipsey starts ripping and gets off after a short lived battle. 0 for 3. Not a good start, but lots of early action.

A little while later the same dipsey starts screaming and we finally land one. 1 for 4. We went on to miss 3 more hits this morning going 1 for 7 including the hardest smash to a dipsey I have ever witnessed. I thought the rod snapped. This fish was so pissed off it hit and screamed so fast and hard after just 15 seconds it came unglued. Felt like a break off. Sure enough, reeled up to see the trebel on a brand new Atomik Fly completely break off. I have never had this happen before. Can't believe it... what a fish that must have been.

All fish in 80-90'.

Hey fleet, are those gamma hooks? Myself and a few others were breaking them on stripers in the spring, seems they got into some problems recently with hardness, old ones will bend, new ones will snap. Anytime you put a pliers to them, they weaken also.

I think A-TOM-MIK uses ST41 Owner trebels. I use the same trebels for the rigs I tie and have never had a problem. They're quality hooks.

This particular fly was brand new just removed from the packaging last night and tied on. I'd blame the hook typically but since this was the nastiest explosion of a hit I've ever seen, I think the fish had a lot to do with it.

Things like this keep you up at night... man I wish I coulda seen that fish.
