HEYART,
I hate to hear that. I've also talked to several other stripe fishermen and the deputy chief of AL Fisheries Division of the DNR. There have been many reports of late of floating stripes. From what I've gathered, it's not been a major kill, but enough to be concerned about. Although, there's nothing we can do about it - Mother Nature holds the cards. I'm glad to see cooler weather moving in - maybe that will stave off further floating stripes.

BTW, this morning we netted an 8 pounder flopping on top in Long Branch Slough that had no hook marks in its mouth.

An aside - AU's QB looked great last night. Maybe Big Blue will have a good year.

Tight Lines!
Wes
