Last Few Days At The Flats!

Hello All…..good fishing lately.  We had a massive spawn a couple of days ago.  More fish than I’ve ever seen spawn at the flats.  All the boat in the region were very good around the spawning fish.  Most folks were just observing in awe of natures wonder.  I would guess thousands of Stripers spawning over a 3 mile by 1 mile area.

The surface bite has kicked in and lately the bite has been very good.  Had many fish in the last 3 days on surface plugs and Tony Acetta Spoons.  Fish have been mainly in less than 10′ of water but some around channel edges a bit deeper where BKD’s were the ticket.  Here’s a few shots from the last couple of days!!!!!!

First Ever Striper on a surface plug!

Look at this incredible little guy with a great surface plugged Striper!!!

another surface plugged whopper!

17 Tony caught Striper....lot's of those the last couple of days!

49" very fat Striper......probably between 45 to 50 pounds......huge!!!!!!

Flat water, beautiful Striper!

50" very fat fish, probably 50 pounds or a little more......WOW!!!!!!!

Fishing should continue to be pretty good over the next couple of weeks or so.  I may have some walk-on trips coming up.  I have to look at the book and figure it out.  Would love to sneak in a couple more walk-trips before the end of the flats season.  Thanks everybody and good luck fish’in!!!!!!

So far so good at the flats!  I’ve had many more good days than bad days.  A great report is I haven’t had a skunk yet.  Had some tough days with less than 10 fish but no skunks in 2012 yet and I hope none will happen.  Numbers of big fish have been Read more »

Walleye Pete’s Susquehanna Flats Tutorial

                       

  “Walleye” Pete’s Susqy Flats Tutorial

      

The master himself, Pete Dressler, aka “Superfish” from 

the old World Wide Angler board fishing with me 

at the Susqy Flats a few years back

 

I‘ve fished the flats now for the last 14 years, this will be the 15th!  Basically been on the water every fishable day in the month of April till May 3 for 14 years at the Susqy Flats.  Don’t have the exact numbers but what I do know is I’ve spent many days on the water at the flats over the last 14 years.  Learned much myself and learned alot from the “king” of the flats, Mike Benjamin.  I still don’t know it all…never will!  Seems like the more I’m on a piece of water the more I realize I don’t know.  Funny how as I “mature” in my fishing life fantasy, “the more I KNOW I don’t know”.  Granted I’ve been pretty good at working patterns and observing clues to locating fish and always trying to get better.  The main super secret I have is Read more »
