Recently moved to the Silver Bay area, house is right on a lagoon that runs parallel to the bay. My 10 year old son has been out there casting religiously every day, but no sniffs, touches, or signs of life.
Ran home yesterday to see the kids after school and son informs me that he saw a swirl out back. Grab the rods out of the car, cast a 5" soft plastic mullet.....Bang
Fish comes up short on it. Grab another rod with a small Yo-Zuri plug......fish on
Few minutes later hooked up again hand the rod to my 7 yr old daughter....her first striper
It starts downpouring kids run inside. My son is all bummed out
(still hasn't caught one) and my daughter is busting his chops
The rain slows down he runs out.....hooked up within 2 minutes, his first Striper ever! All small 12-15" fish, but great to see the kids land their first ones ever.
