I deided to take up fishing again because I'm too crippled up to play golf anymore. But not fishing on that scale. Those are really nice. I'll be thinking about them while I'm throwing my little perch back...

Sweet bass!!
When we go to the beach in July the last couple years we took the detectors down. Since we mainly find clad, this year I think we'll take the rods and do more fishing then detecting.
We fish right off the jetty in O.C. Md. Drift a live eel with the in coming or out going tide and hold on. Lol

I will assume you are using big EELS for bait?
Spring run we always use them in the rocks and usually score pretty good.
Dang things are a devil to rig up though.
Slimy so they are,,, very slimy

Congratz! Those are some nice fish. We have the hybrids in our reservoir about 3 hours north of the gulf. They're fun, but I'm sure that fail in comparison to those monsters!

Nice! Do you like the taste of stripper? They are fun to catch but I didn't care for the taste of it after I caught one. The fight was awesome, that's the prize I got. That's a lunker.


Man thats a big striper...

Thanks guys, used fresh bunker chunks on bottom rigs
My fish was the biggest of the day 40 pound on the nose
