Good day striper fishing today!

[jdubois]

It was such a beautiful day on the water today, I really didn't care that we didn't catch any fish. But then just about when we were ready to pack it in, we caught these two bad boys within 5 minutes of each other. First one was 44" 25lbs, second one was 46" 30lbs. Good eatin' tonight

I was happy the other day to catch a 14" largemouth out of my kayak. Catching that 46" striper was surreal!

Where did you go? This in the canal?

 

[Mass-diver]

Awesome. Striper is such a good eating fish!

It was in the Merrimack river up in Newburyport. We fished the mouth trying to catch stripers, and had given up and gone down into the river to see if we could at least catch some catfish when we nailed these two monsters basically by accident. They were so big, I let mine go, and we divided up the fillets from the other one between us. I then gave a quarter of my fillet to my folks when I picked my kid up this afternoon from their house, fried up another quarter for dinner, and still have two quarters left in my freezer.

Bi is definitely where to go, I've never been. I got a dinner sized striper early this year, 30". I got my limit on Tog yesterday, Castle Hill and Dumplings RI.

Viz was just ok, opened up on the bottom around 20-25 feet. Saw a schoolie striper and that was it for bass, tog were everywhere! 3 shots, 3 fish, I love when that happens!

She was only about 40" long but damn was she a heavy-ass fish.

Haha, no. From Marty H's Fathers boat. It is kept in the canal, very handy.

Had orders to burn off some fuel before it comes out of the water next weekend. Twist our arms!
Not bad for my first time out this year, today.
