Great afternoon, sorry one of you guys couldn't hook up with me. I ended up with over 20 fish, including a couple nice fish, one which was another mutant. Bruce you remember that fish with the stub for a tail, well I caught another stubby just like it, but it was clearly a different fish. This fish would have measured close to 30 inches and found great even if it didn't have any tail. I wonder what causes this, it's like a very small percentage of these fish came from some leper colony for stripers.

Wish I'd followed my instincts and hooked up the boat last night and been ready to roll at first light. By the time I got down there it was close to noon and I wonder how the morning bite was. Well John, you and I just can't seem to hook up. Maybe next week, I'd love to hit another warming trend like the past couple of days. I did real well last Thurday and after a similar warming trend.

Tight lines.
