@@coryhall668 9-10ft rods, 5k-6k size reels with 15-20lb test braid. 1.5 or 2oz jig heads with 5in swim baits. You can use metal spoons and top water too. The glove is a finger guard meant to protect it from getting cut from the braid when casting.

@StriperPursuit what brand on the finger guard?

@ aquaskinz

@@StriperPursuit bet ty man you gonna have to let me go with you one day maybe I can get some tips and luck from you lmao 🤣 you be slayin em

Oklahoma is loaded! I wanna fish there someday. Happy fishing!

@@TheArsenal187 boat launch right under the bridge

@@StriperPursuit any crappie in that area? Sorry for all the dumb questions😂😂😂😂 work too much and never get the chance to get out

Spring to early summer and Late summer to the fall time is my go to. Right now they should be in there but haven’t gone in a while.

@@davek677 did you even watch the video? Not a single fish floated up and they all blasted out. There is no need to revive a little schoolie after you straight up yank them out of the water, they arent even using energy to fight since they’re just being dragged on top. They have plenty of energy if you unhook them quick. You only need to revive bigger fish that actually fought. Watch 11:47 and 15:05. We revive fish when they need it and even those hardly needed time to swim off.

“Useless” is objective to the individual as some actually like the parts of the intro. Fast forwarding is an amazing option you can use which you may find more useful to you if a part of the video does not entertain you or yet simply just watch something else may be the better choice.

You really gotta find out what they’re eating that day and it’ll depend on what you use. My main arsenal is just a top water plug/popper, hydro-minnow, bucktail or algag swim bait.

Nah, this was 1pm-5pm.

@@StriperPursuit Thank you! Good stuff man. What a day!

@@Nelson-qj8vh thanks! Cape cod canal, Massachusetts

It’s a size 6k. I really like it. Not too pricey and a tough reel.

good luck! heard chunking mackerel at night was good.

I’m not a local but I’ve been having good luck at pole 65 on either side of the canal or going to west end and fishing maritime or bell road. Early morning 1hr before and after a slack. Three lures I use most are a bucktail, hydro minnow and top water plug.

If you're fishing there I would first recommend you check the water release schedule to see if they have any turbines on. No running water is gonna be a tough bite there but maybe early in the morning. Mostly any 4-5in swimbait will do but I prefer Algag's since they perform best at casting for me with 1 to 1.5oz jigheads.

@@StriperPursuit so if theres no turbines running dont bother going? And what about fort loudon

@@SouthEastTNCatfishinh Yea, from my experience the stripers don't get too active without any moving water. Fort loudon usually had its generators running but it's a little difficult to walk all the way to dam and can be quite snaggy until you learn the spots to throw. Overall it's a better choice if the water is running.

@@StriperPursuit what colors would you recommend

@@SouthEastTNCatfishinh Pearl white, bone, chartreuse or anything else natural.

I’m 13hrs away so we can only come once a year but glad we got lucky on this trip! Been hearing the same from all the locals, slow year all around unfortunately.

Frfr, them things came in clutch! I just slide down rocks lol.

When we first got there, there were a few birds there but not many. We just blind casted top water where we thought there might be fish and got some but when we saw mackerel swimming through we knew that the fish were gonna roll in.

@@StriperPursuit Thats insane bro. Was at the power plant that morning and it was ridiculous fishing all until noonish. Surprised it picked back up all the way down at the maritime

@andrewmeawad822 yea, we probably saw each other because we were at pole 65 there as well. You commented on the last vid asking the time, we were there 5am-11:30am and then left there and found the Mack’s at maritime.

You can park there and walk straight down 10 seconds.

@@StriperPursuitnice! Thanks for the rapid respond sir! Heading there now as we speak!

@@StriperPursuitwhich parking spot?

Maritime academy park

@@StriperPursuit thank u

@@Oscar12903 no, August 7th

Thanks!

@@Unplugged704 if you use fresh powerpro you likely won’t ever break with 20lb. That stuff is strong and it allows you to cast lighter plugs out further into the strike zone. I’d only recommend going heavier if you plan on throwing 4+ oz but I don’t go that heavy.

We’re from NC. Always visit once a year around the same time.

From Canal!

@@ricechickenrenz7752 indeed

Nice gj i believe i was more left to you guys this day aug3rd was the better day that weekend if i remember

@ryanG978 we got there in the afternoon of the 3rd and missed that morning but heard it was pretty good too.

You pretty much want to cast a little past the furthest turbine that is on and let it drift down the current while jigging. They’ll be on top too if the conditions are right for it.

@@StriperPursuit thank you

Around end of march to beginning of June they’re anywhere from state park boat launch to all the way up river to 40 bridge. There is a kayak access upriver near the railroad bridge I believe.

Sprinter 280 pro with a 200hp mercury

Eh is this robin channels or his bro? Yah be getting alot of action...

I’m his youngest brother, always fish with him. We get on them sometimes. Better than some other days.

Yea, if I can I only keep a limit once a year since those fish ain’t exactly safe to eat often. If I go anymore throughout the year it’s all CnR. Melton is just easier to fish if they’re there.

Yes, you can access the bank from either side.

Yes this is close to the i40 bridge. We were using shad, jerkbaits and umbrella rigs.

I can’t remember if I did on this day but I usually do.

@@StriperPursuit ok new to kayaking I thanks for getting back to me so quick one more question when anchoring out there do I usually anchor off the side or front of your yak ??

Last two weekends pretty much

If the water is running then yes.
