The early girl gets the fish

It had been quite a while since we were able to get out in the boat so we set the alarm to beat the sun. I’ve been running the boat a lot but others were doing the fishing. We found the birds and the bait pretty quickly and soon after the bass found us. The […]

John had to head home yesterday so it was Steve for his third day in a row. We headed out to the spot that was holding stripers. There were a few around and Steve managed to get one to eat. That area petered out soon after so we decided to take a ride. After a […]

Grinding one out

Today Peter and Paul were back for their second day of three. We started like yesterday but the fish had moved on. We picked a few off the beach but it was pretty quiet. We took a long ride to a couple of spots that I haven’t fished in a while. They weren’t there either. […]
