A Foggy Encounter

Deteriorating weather always makes me excited to go fishing.  Bad weather keeps the crowds at bay, and also tends to get the fish excited about eating.  Foggy weather can sometimes make for spooky fishing though.  At those times, its just you, the water, and the fish.  The memories can be a little surreal, especially when the fish you catch turns out to be a big striper that runs you a hundred yards down the river.  A cold combined with exhaustion compounds the problem, leaving behind only a hazy recollection of the events leading up to catching such a fish...

  7. Nice striper! I've been trying to figure out how to catch them on a fly here at Lake Martin, AL. I've only caught them by accident on conventional tackle before. I wonder if it's easier to catch them on the spring spawn? Or just spend a lot of time looking for them to come to the top? thanks !
