Early Morning Stripers @ Fletcher's

[Thevietfisher]

Trent Jones (TPFR OG) and I headed out for our annual early morning striper hunt at Fletcher's.  Targeted specie along with the obligatory snagged gizzard shad acquired.

(Despite urban legend, gizzards do not eat flies.)

Gear:

• 9 and 10 wt rods 
  
• 4-5ft 20lb leader
  
• 350 and 400 grain full sinking lines  (worth the investment) 
  
• Large 5-6" Half and Halfs (2/0 and 4/0 hooks), tied with extra long hackle and extra large dumbells (extra heavy)
  
• Celebratory Cuban cigars

P.S. I’m a newb but hoping to come to the beer tie tonight.
