This is the third year they attended the Striperfest at the Sugar Barge on Bethel Island. We spent half as much as last year on raffle tickets and the boys won almost as much goodies. This raffle is one of the best raffles anywhere due to the tremendous amount of support by guides and fishing business people. The food is good and it was fun catching up with friends.
The boys were lucky enough to win a new Hardy ProAxis Sintrix 9 ft. 9 weight fly rod, a TFO 3 weight, MANY beautiful striper and topwater flies, a guided trip with Rob Anderson, a guided trip for snook fishing in Palm Beach Fl., 3 bottle of wine, assorted fly lines and more.
The fishing was tough for us due to the boys wanting to topwater fish most of the day. We never got a bite or blow up. When we chenged to subsurface lures and flies, the bites came but not many fish. Still a fun trip to the delta and most likely our last for the season.
