Shaun_300 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Wow, nice looking fish!! They look very similar to our whitefish, except with bigger mouths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruttinbuc Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Nice bunch of fish! Would have had to throw them all back here... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adjam5 Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Nice bunch of fish! Would have had to throw them all back here... Got that right Mike. Nice fish though. Hutchies you have to get a 30 or 40lb striper on a hook and feel that. Incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimT Posted May 15, 2009 Report Share Posted May 15, 2009 Nice bunch of fish! Would have had to throw them all back here... Here also... Can only keep one fish a day here. Has to be either between 20-26" or over 40". I have caught a few over 40". It's a riot.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutchies Posted May 16, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2009 Hate to tell you but that last fish ain't a striper!!! Nice catch though hutch. What did you get them on? Were you out in a boat? I was in my jon boat. I hit a few of my crappie holes with jigs. Got that one big one and lost one about the same size. Anyway threw on rattle traps on the way back and trolled in about 12 foot of water til we found a school. Then they came to top water. I had one that all I seen was the tail and he popped my line........14lb Suffix. Heck jason I was only probably 3/4 mile from Kat's house. My little 14 foot jon boat works great for trolling. Only got a 9.8 on the back and you can troll all day on 2 gallons of gas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
