Merrimack River 5/16 - 1st fish of the year
Maiden voyage of got fish? was on Sunday. Fished the Merrimack with the kids (13, 11, & 5) for about an hour. Schoolies were on the south side of the channel across from the toothpick. Was throwing 4" Storm Wildeye Shad plastics...colors pearl and bunker (didn't seem to matter).

Watching my kids trying to "haul" in the fish was awesome.

See you on the water.
