What happens if it rains?

• Bring RAIN GEAR

• Most likely we are fishing

• We will not fish in torrential rain

• We will not fish in lighting storms

What happens if a lighting storm is in the forecast?

• It is at the captain's discretion to either fish or postpone the trip

• In the spring and summer storms move through quickly and we can be fishing with little interruption

• After and during rain can be the best fishing 

What happens if the river is blown out from rain?

• If the river is muddy or blown out the captain will decide to fish or postpone

• A plugging trip can turn into a bait trip

• A shad trip can turn into a striper trip using bait

• A spring trip and turn into a summer trip

What happens if I book a striper trip and its postpone and the run is over?

• We can move up the river to find stripers

• We can fish for smallmouth, walleyes, catfish, etc

• You are booking a fishing trip so you need to be flexible with species if the striper run is over
