Hello. My names Jerry and I'm 32 years young. I haven't done much fishing at Raystown Lake but grew up in Portage PA which is only like 40 minutes from the lake. I fished a lot growing up but mostly pan fish and bass in the smaller lakes and dams around home. I fished for stripers the first time...

I have been after these pesky stripers for 8 years and I have only boated 3 fish. I have put some time on the water thats for sure. I would like to start reaping the rewards of my time investment! I thought it may be helpful to put together some tips for the new angler so they can have an...

First of all, thanks for allowing me to absorb all your help and information while on the hunt for my first striper. I love to fish, have an old boat three years now, have fished Boston Harbor, and on vaca since 2002 on Nantucket. Having younger children also turns fishing into short trips as...

A few weeks ago I was chunking and at least 10 bass swallowed my traditional J hooks. I had to cut the line with the hook in their mouth and felt terrible about it. When I got home I searched for info on fishing with circle hooks in this site. Based on what I learned I tried them out this...

I saw this question on another site and it created quite a debate. I know we all try our hardest not to gut hook fish, but it happens. So, what do we do? Leave the hook in there? It would be interesting to find out the mortality rate of a fish that has a hook in it s gut. Can it still eat...

Went down to Hammo this weekend, got there right at sunup, there was lots of action at the surface, nice and serene, didnt even bother to head to the jedi, the fish were breaking right behind my Jeep, so we tossed our lines in at the rock field, boom first cast nice bay blue. We proceeded to...
