Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Re: Stripers and Stripping Baskets

I just tied these up for this weekend.  I hope the silver looks like a smaller shad, and the jighead should give it some pretty nice action in the water

I tied up a bunch of "shad deceivers" last year and caught a couple of 15 to 25 inch schoolie stripers during the shad run, definitely put up a fun fight.  Also, if I recall correctly, Alex Binstead caught a 40+ inch striper last year on a shad dart.  I'm guessing they hit darts out of instinct or aggression.

Yeah I was surprised too.  Maybe it passed close enough that the fish ate out of reflex more than anything else?  Not sure, but I'm tying some big silver clousers to try and imitate those smaller/weaker shad this weekend.
