Striper fishing remains excellent on Lanier...8/5

Written by 
Got out today with a fellow Kayak fisherman to hit lanier for a few stripers. The morning started off slow but eventually I got on a GOOD school of fish! At one point I was reeling in one fish and my other rod plowed into the water! A one man double in the yak isn't the easiest thing to reel in, I set the drag on the other rod and quickly reeled the first fish in but lost the second one. No worries, there were plenty more where that one came from! All fish today hit around 30-40ft down over a 70-85 foot bottom, many were coming out of the timber.  The bite seemed to turn on around 10:30 so no need to get up early!
