gorgeousviolette I see a blitz, smacking sounds everywhere on the water. I get to the canal at sunrise, 62 degrees, low tide, two days after a full moon... I see folks throwing topwaters and pencils, but the guy who is catching fish is using a metal. So I swap my Bomber for a metal, first cast bam. I caught my first keeper striper. I hooked another right after but lost it. It was a kick ass morning!
