I have been using some of your techniques to finally actually catch stripers on my videos! I appreciate all the info you supply. Awesome video as always:-)
Awesome!!! Thanks brother!!!
Awesome afternoon of fishing with you guys! Glad i was able to tag along!
Was a blast brother!! 👍👍👍
Steve is definitely wearing the right hat!
Looks like the striper in Jordan are starting to boom again!
FishinWithTyler Decent numbers for sure.
Great stuff as always buddy. Always good to see a trolling video.
Always a good solid bank of info man! Dig it. Tight lines and rippin lips.
Thanks brother!!
Awesome as usual....being that I'm close to Kerr Resovoir (Buggs island) and, even closer to SML, your videos are just what I need to get myself in the best position to catch fish...Now, I looked up this fishing reels you have there and wooooo, I guess I'm gonna have to wait til they go on sale 😂 ....thanks for all the priceless knowledge Mike...keep doing what you're doing, you're helping people
Well done Captain, great video gotta love the days like that. Keep up the great work. 🎣🎣🎣🎣🎣
Thanks brother.
Good looking crew you have in this video
I was wondering if you would be first on this one😛😛
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS would have been sad if I wasnt :P
Hey Mike looking good brother!I might have seen that goon in the orange last week!!😂🤣Looking good Steve!!
David Farley yeah man. 😁😁
Awesome as usual, Mike! By far my favorite method of searching. Where you are fishing is where I went when everyone else was down at Weldon. Keep 'em tight! You need to be on Buggs in about two weeks.
Thanks brother!!!
Great session as usual great video thank you for sharing I know what you mean we should all try different options as you know change this is hard for most people but you’re right absolutely right if you don’t try something else something you will get stuck and can we wonder how come we don’t catch anything thank you for sharing again👍🐟🐠🎣🐠
Thanks brother!!
Great video. Lots of action.
Mike, I wish I could get you in my boat to teach me the settings on the electronics. I fish Lake Allatoona in North Georgia and struggle to find schools of fish like that. I am running a Simrad Go9.
Great videos and nice boat :-) Regards from Denmark
That guy on the radio sounds familiar 😁
Got em on Outdoors 👍👍. 😉😉
Good Job bru 👍🏻
Great video! I only fish freshwater lakes but have a hard time finding the bigger trophy fish. If you could give advice or a video on how to target bigger fish I would greatly appreciate it!
Thanks brother!! Cut bait on points way back in creeks in late winter/early to mid spring. 👍👍
man that air conditioner/mister looks nice
Never thought I’d use it but glad I have it!
been bass fishing all my life but recently, I've been finding myself wanting to go after stripers instead. I have yet attempted to troll for them as I've always used spoons to fish for them. When would you troll over using slab/spoons?
Trolling is best when scouting or when fish are very spread out. I will troll when on a lake for the first time until I find other things like isolated schools hanging in an area. If they sit still I will jig. If they move I troll. 👍👍
I also have fished for smallmouth and largemouth most of my life but once I got into hybrids and stripers nothing else matters. Well maybe not all the time. Hello to all you Kentucky & Tennessee fishermen 😎🎣
I didn’t see a link for your buddy Steve . Is he a guide or just knows the lake . If so one the latter would he like to fish with me sometime 😊
He is not a guide. He lives close to the lake and fishes it a lot. Shoot me an email mikesmedley9@gmail.com and I will be sure to get it to him. Thanks Ron!!
Would like to see a video of you striper fishing lake Martin in Alabama? It's the best striper lake in Alabama.
Lewis Smith Lake is the best Striper lake in AL.
great video, Mike!! can you tell me about those rod holder you're using? the one that appears to go in 1 rod holder and holds 4 rods.
Thanks brother. It’s a rail I designed so I can move the cluster around the boat. Just drop it in the flush mount rod holders. I have a buddy making them for anyone that also wants them. You can call Joey Scruggs at +1 (434) 907-1656. I use Ce Smith rod holders on them. They are super tough and never lose adjustment. amzn.to/34LwPGD
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks, I'll text him.
Mike when you have large schools of strippers in a lake where will the big ones be? Mixed in, towards bottom of school, etc. how can you avoid the smaller fish? Thanks for your videos!
For the most part they will be similar sizes, but not always. Sometimes it’s a matter of finding the right school. I will leave fish sometimes if they are all small, but this lake only had small fish. In summer I usually catch smaller fish trolling, but some of the biggest lake Stripers I ever caught were trolling in winter.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thank you Mike! Your name ought to be striper mike PHD. I do most of my striper fishing in Texoma and Possum Kingdom in Texas.
Great video. Where did you get those 4 rod gimbal rod holders?
Great video. When was it filmed? 90+ degrees water seems hot for October. I'm on Lanier and surface temps are in the low 70's this week.
Thanks brother. This was 6-8 weeks ago or so.
You ever try trolling manns stretches
Sure.
I used to use them a lot off the Outer Banks in winter. I don’t troll a whole lot anymore, but When I do I prefer chute/Mojo rigs and Mojo/Spoon rigs.
Yum
How did you rig up your misting system - something you bought or that you built? Raw water or fresh water???
It was built in from Sea Pro. It has a tank. I never thought I would ever use it, but I’m glad I had it on many days.
Awesome video as usual! I'm in the process of building a few umbrella rigs and would like your opinion. I have a few 20", 4 arm that has 8 - 6" sassy shad teasers and plan on running a mojo behind it. I was going to buy a 4oz mojo and put a 9" sassy shad on it but is 4oz enough? Should I purchase a 8oz or heavier? I troll around the Chesapeake Bay Bridge.
I would go with a 4oz bait and add a Braille weight if you need to get deeper. If your trailer bait is too heavy it hangs a lot lower than the umbrella rig.
You should try lake wallenpaupack in Pa
I actually fished it twice many years back. Awesome solitude. Didn’t see another single fisherman even once. 👍👍
Was curious if you ever did hit it she could be a tough one
Is that cold water shooting on you from the roof haha
It’s a mister 😛😛😛😛😛. Sea Pro put those in the boat without me realizing it. I thought I would NEVER use them, but I gotta admit brother. They are awesome.
Hey mike would you ever consider fishing the Mullica river with me ?
What are you catching there?
Hi Mike, great freaking video. questions, how fast are you trolling with your umbrella rig? how deep do you troll at? is there a specific water temp you aim for when trolling? i have struggles trolling my rig and somehow get stick on the bottom at shall depths of 15-20 ft or have had my line just snap from trolling on some strong swells. looking forward to hearing from you. great stuff all the time.
I usually troll at 2.8-3.5. I get very aggressive in fall winter and spring. I will pull up on shallow points with rigs running 25 ft deep. I throttle up to make rigs rise in 10-15 feet deep on points, regularly ticking bottom. That gets great reaction strikes. I do get snagged quite a bit, but keep a retriever on board. I use 30lb mono, the stretch never breaks off. I set drag just tight enough to not pay out when I speed up. 120-150ft out runs 20-25 ft deep depending on speed. In summer I stay more in the open water where schools are.
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERS thanks!! great info. appreciate the feedback.
👍👍
@@MikeSmedleyOLDSCHOOLSTRIPERSfaster or slower in the summer? and how late in the morning can you fish?
@@brandonyoung3132 I constantly change speed until we are consistently hooking up. I fish only afternoon/evening’s. Stripers are nocturnal so I’d rather fish going IN to their biggest activity than coming out of it.
Great lesson. What was boat speed?
Thanks brother. 2.5-3.5 mph.
What size jigs and jigheads should I be using if I am on a kayak and what size for a boat?
You can use the same stuff from Kayak to boat, just use less rods. The big umbrellas use 1oz baits. 9 of them. You can also troll Alabama rigs with 5 baits 1/2oz each.
what boat speed when trolling like this? how much weight to troll at 10-15ft?
For umbrella rigs I like 2.6 to 3.5 mph. I add no weight 150 ft out will get you at 22-25ft deep with a 9 bait Urig. If you’re pulling single 1-3oz baits leader core line is excellent. At the end of this video Steve shows his leadcore rods and how deep to get them. 👍👍
Do hybrids mirror striper behavior? Points on main lake in the summer?
Great question! They don’t behave exactly the same, but we catch them in the same places we catch Stripers. They do like to stay on main lake points longer than Stripers. They spend more time in open water versus time way back in creeks and shallow. Thanks brother!
i need a fish finder to find my fish... i need a boat to pull my lure... i need a holder to hold my rod.. what part of this is actual fishing?
Since you asked, I would say the part that is “actual fishing” is the part where you put the phone down, stop watching fishing videos, “commenting negatively,” helping no one, and “actually” go where fish are. That’s a great first step……………..
I mean, since you asked. 👍.
Is Jordan stripers still doing good?
Why are they not turning the clicker off when reeling them in ?
Good question. Mainly we leave it on just for the viewer to hear the fish take drag and to be able to sense the pressure put on the fish. These fish were smaller so it wasn’t really as effective in that sense, but there are actually several other reasons to leave the clickers on. If you scroll down my uploads you will see a video called WHY WE LEAVE CLICKERS ON not too far down the list. Thanks for the comment.
What lake is this at
Is that the Capt. Mack Rig?
No, they are rigs I made, but Capt Mac makes good rigs.
Were do you get hats and other stuff you wear
Aftco makes the clothing, rain gear, etc. I get the hats straight from my sponsors and partners. You can get the Simrad gear online. Thanks brother.
Can you catch striper with cut white perch?
Sure.
