OCTOBER STRIPERS ON THE FEED!!!!

Greetings All:

Well hopefully you have had a chance to get out on the Mississippi River and enjoy some of the great Fall White Bass fishing that is happening right now. Even in these low water conditions the bite is really happening. I have been fishing Pools-11-12 & 13 with equally great results. Those of you that listen to me on ESPN know I just love the October White Bass bite when it is common to catch many big fish over 3 pounds. 

Right now the best results have been coming from fishing long wing dams that extend out near the main river channel. Jig/twister rigs in bright colors working well. Another great spot I have been getting huge fish near 4 pounds are the sand flat areas near the main channel and also where a stream or river enters the Mississippi. For these locations it's tough to beat a 1/4th. Ounce, all white hair jig right now. Use light line, a light rod and make long casts. The white hair jig is a favorite of mine for these October fighters and they really hit it hard. Vary your retrieve till you find what they are looking for.

I'll tell you my friends, if you can, make some time to get out on the Mississippi River and enjoy some of the fastest Fall fishing of your life. Be safe, wear that PFD and save a few for me...................
