Today was the day we did our annual trip with Nikon. One of the Sales managers, a client and the rep split between 2 boats for a day of stripers. Captain Eric Matland took the rep, Bryan and I had Jim and Randy in my boat. It was a hell of a day between the two boats with close to 70 fish boated. Eric and Bryan did well with soft plastics while my guys had a field day with top waters. We started just south of the rail road bridge and drifted close to 2 miles, catching fish the whole way. The foggy sunrise was a great back drop for the action.

We kept picking away. Nothing big landed but we had a couple of shots at 40″ range fish. One came completely out of the water to take a spook. She was on the hook for a good 20 seconds and was gone… Here are a few pics from a very good day on the river:
