You talkin' 'bout that huge orb that was glowing orange and rising out of the east around 9:30?  Big and full it was...

This Full moon will make the fish get stupid. I'm already getting some reports of insane numbers of fish caught. Musky at that.

I know that's true for many species, but it's interesting to me how that doesn't seem to apply to stripers - at least larger ones.  For myself and every one I know that specifically targets the big girls the full moon is almost always a tough time to get bit.

My brother, uncle, future brother in law and myself drove at 4:30 this AM to fish and float 2 boats to a striper hole at dawn.  It was a bright clear night sky on the hour drive to the river.

I caught a great hybrid right off the bat, about 12 lbs.  My Brother Jay caught a 10 lb striper, Brandon caught his first 4 lb hybrid.  My uncle got some bumps, but we couldn't get him  a hookup. 
All on topwater!  Bite was over around 8:30 with the clear sunrise.

Jay got my uncle on a 3.5 largemouth at another river on the way home.
Will get some photos posted one day.

Great day. 

I would be fishing my tail off tonight........but I've got something better coming!

Wedding day is tomorrow Fellas!

My family is reuinited after over a decade of being apart.  Our new home and front porch has been the perfect reunion gathering place.  We are truly blessed.
 
Crystal and I will do a quickout trip to Florida--no plans.  Most likely trout and redfishing near San Destin.
Our real honeymoon will be in Belize this winter.  8)
God Bless,
Travis
