Thanks,

Just got in and my right shoulder is KILLING ME !!!
It was a massacre

We had 10 keeper bass (over 28") and released too many to count. Also had 10-18 lb bluefish that we kept many !! and released way more !!! Willie even called me in the middle of the mayhem...

Pictures to follow

OK,
Here ya go boys !!!
I was using 2 ounce crippled herrings and killing them, next runner up (my buddy was using) was a red & white bucktail with white twister worm(we caught about the same amount)

Massive schools of mixed blues and stripers.

Here's an early shot, getting a striper count

Final tally back at the dock 10 keepers ( we had 4 guys, allowed 2 fish each, but we had 2 bonus tags too)
We also had a boat load of Blues too. Too many for photo.

011 011 012 Looks like you guys had a great time. This morning I was up to go chase deer and fell and smashed my back against the trucks running boards. Later spent 2 hours in the emergency room bring checked out for broken ribs and internal bleeding. Thank god neither, just a very bruise back muscle which hurts like hell and makes sitting, standing and lying down brutal..............anyway, glad you guys had a great day yesterday on the stripers and blues........Willie 010

[Harry]

Dang dude,
The deers suposed to get dinged up, not you.

If it makes you feel any better, my should is still sore from reeling in all those fish...... ;D
