When my wife asked me what I wanted for my Birthday today I told her, a good group of customers and a Good bite on the Striped Bass would make me very Happy.

Well, my wish was granted as I couldn't think of any other way to spend my 60th! When things got right and the bite turned on it was awesome. June started the day off with a 31 pound fish, followed by Erick with a 38, Ron with a 36 & 32.6, First time fishermen young man Jack had another beauty at 33.9, Big Dave & Chris Zotti with 25 pounders and several other beauties in the mix. Not one fish under 30 inches today.

Pool fish went to Rick Devito with a just under 40 pound Striper at 39.8 pounds. A mix of eels & jigs both worked. Heavier jigs as the current ran most of the day at 3 knots!!

Weather looking a little crappy for tomorrow but we will be there to go!

Pretty work! Happy Birthday! You and your Dad were very instrumental in me learning to love the sport of fishing. My Dad used to take me on the Fisherman every weekend for a number of years on the old 3-9 Magic Hour trips. It was on those trips I got addicted to weakfishing with Tiger Tails. Lol!
