tagging Striped Bass

Well guys
had a mediocre day tagging striped bass with the department of Fisheries yesterday. Even though I caught a 37" & 38" . we usually pin about 80 to 100 fish. only got 22 bass and 26 blues. still it was a beautiful day to be on the water and away from work. I kept 3 blues to make smoked bluefish pate.

Looks like a good time away from work. Is that a rip in the background of the picture of Charlie and Dave or were you in some semi protected area fishing?

Good Times, got stationed on a cutter out of Boston, then rescue station at Cape Cod, coming from Wyoming I was amazed at the fishing and hunting in Mass. and the great people there that took me and showed me “the ropes” so to speak…..tight lines

Nice day Rip, you ever do any freshwater striper fishing?
we don't have any near by so I just go offshore or to the beaches.
