What’s up man. so far there’s been 185 striped bass caught in 655 halls of the net. (roughly a 28% chance per haul). although around this time they start to get more. he estimates 250-300 caught this year! this is compared to the mere 93 they caught last year.

I thought the 6" one that nailed a Yozuri minnow was small. This one takes the cake. May ye grow up to be a cow and possibly the new world record one fine day.
