:happy: :happy: first keeper of the year for me...more than likely a holdover......caught in mystic river this morning in Sommerville, Medford area. I had to scramble for digital camera out of pocket and I was by myself and couldn't get the money shot also wanted to get her back in the water a.s.a.p. roughly 29.5 inches no weight recorded.....fish was released for another day. Imagine year round striper action.

completely computer stupid. I am trying to add my signature
below my user name and I am having no luck, could you
help me out again? I would like my signature to read "See you
in the surf". Thanks JohnR I appreciate your help.
Thanks for your patience everyone. I hope to see you in the
surf.
BigFish

this thing. Thanks again.

No prob Larry, err lawrence :eek5:

So, I spoked to a fella I know that lives in the lower Chessapeke area of VA and he did say that large bodies of decent fish have been underway from there, northbound, for over a month now. He also mentioned that they are now in there COW season with the big gals coming thru.... I told Miles to save 'em for us :)

:btu:

Swimmer & myself went down Monday afternoon to Buzzards Bay area looking for schoolies...&^%%^ We are still looking:confused:

last week april 19, 2003, i went on a charter fishing trip with some students from gallaudet univ. on cheapspeare bay. it was a open season for stripers and they are trophy-sized. i caught the 33 1/2 inches and it weight around 15 lbs. a customer from another charter boat caught a 30 lbs striper. so it's pretty a good season now.

john, i have an image, but it's too big to attach. i dont have a photoshop on my computer. lemme send it to you.

Guys,
The fisherman is reporting a good one from the west wall last week.
