Went fishing today.

Mine, 42 inch, 23.1 pounds. My friend Dale's was 41 inches and 25.8 pounds (it had a whole herring in its belly). Fished off my boat, a 19 foot Grady White Tarpon. Fished off the mouth of the Severn River in the Chesapeake bay. 2.5 hours on the water and we had our limit

I miss salt-water fishing with my Dad. Always brought home dinner. Hated the cleanin' off salt off rods & reels, tho'...

Careful with the sun... you'll be like me, goin' thru a face-lift... chemically.

[Blaine]

That's really great!

Nice looking Stripers !

Down here in the Chesapeake Bay they're referred to as Rockfish .

Any time I go to the bay I'm all about the Stripers !

I have a friend that chases them in the Potomac and in the Bay . Yesterday they got one 42" and another at 41" have no idea what they weighed .

They got both of these on the Potomac yesterday !

Many of the reasons to just get a charter boat 3 or 4 times each year !

None of the after you get back to shore stuff and no upkeep on the boat

[M. M. Wright]

Nice fish guys. I just gotta get my boat in the water.

[Bill in Oregon]

Wish we had your striper fishery out here on the Left Coast.

Wish we had your striper fishery out here on the Left Coast.

I've seen pictures of many taken around Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard that were in the 40-60 pound range .

Kinda funny the fish I like to go after are an eclectic group !

Brook Trout , Rainbow Trout , Crappie and Stripers .

But some of that might be explained by the fact that I like eating all those mentioned provided they're filleted or for the small trout stuffed with crab meat .

I have a stocked pond on my property... and never fish in it! Both bass & catfish... both of which I like... but I don't like fihsin' by myself.

Nice. I fished Chesapeake bay years ago for stripers, some bank fishing with blood worms and cut bait and one boat charter.

[JohndeFresno]

Very nice! Thanks for the photos.

Only fish I ever caught that big has been deep sea fishing for Ling Cod out of Monterey and Big Sur coast area (California). Lots of fun!

[Ysabel Kid]

That looks like a heck of a good time!
