First keeper for my son
Just put the boat in on Friday afternoon and my 9 year old wanted to take a run. We caught a single mackerel out off of Hull and brought it back into Boston Harbor to live line. Within 5 minutes he pulled in this 40 inch / 22 lb striper. Nice start to the season. especially since we didn't get much of anything last year.

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

Nice bait to keeper ratio he's got going on? 1 mack = 1 keeper! Not to shabby!

Way to go Joe nice way to start out the season and for that you just got a MISSING LINK Jig shipped to your door , I have either a pink head w/ pink hair for Fluke , or a Smiling Bill White on White for BASS

Just send me a PM and your address I'll get it out to you.

Alot of members of this site have been very generous to my son Matt, He even might have been one of the first kid's on the site. Now it's time to take care of some the other young ones who enjoy fishing.
they grow up fast enjoy it.

Tell lil Joe, "Awesome Job!". all three of my kids are jealous of him. So far they've only caught a couple shorts, (24"-26"). Thats a Great Fish!
So who's more proud Joe or Dad?  (I'm betting it's Dad). |

Real nice job on the keeper, I'm jealous. Also, another nice job on the free jig, Link Sr. Nothing keeps kids coming back like getting recognized and maybe a little free prize. I'm sure he'll be dying to use it.
