Hey guys, wanted to report boat move to Point was good and took a look outside to get familiar with home again! Went solo and corralled and netted 50 pieces in 40 feet of water. Took my first drift And had a good one on, netted him myself and took Measurements, 47 inch length and 27 inch girth. Didnt Want to estimate even though I have landed 1000's of Stripers. On a certified scale it only weighed 42lbs. Looked much bigger but the looks can be deceiving! Anyway she was the biggest fish of the season so far And look forward to fishing in the ocean!
