The wife, youngest son and I hit striker creek yesterday. Spent about 4 hours wearing em out. The wind was strong when we got there and was pushing us upstream, so I had to paddle to get downstream. I figured this would make it easier to to get back, so we went downstream farther than I normally would. Of course, by the time we headed back the wind was calm, so I had to paddle against the current. Got a good workout and my back and shoulders are sore today, but it was worth it. Almost caught our limit on keepers and threw back probably that many that were too small. Minimum length limit is 10", but there's not much meat on any under 12" so we threw back anything under 12.

I tied an orange rattle trap on her line for a while, but they didn't like it as much.
Nice bud, doesn't get much better than that. Good eating too
