Thanks Pa.. The cold beer will be no problem.. More fish :)

Tuna I hear some pinner fishing a worm low holed ya.
Story I hear is fishing a bloodworm near Newburgh bridge area.

Tuna-Looks like the gauntlet has been dropped.  Time to take the field and put that 50 over the rails.
 

Story is that bad boy was 60.
Would love to tangle with that sumabisch!
 
Of course never having caught a striper I would love to dance with those fish the wickedtuna has been getting also.
 
Some day.
I am almost sure I am gonna hit the lottery soon.

Yup it was a new inland NYS record # 60
The real phat ones are on the spawn now in the flats Furthur south of me. While I haven't been out , the bite has been off up here for those that have.
We are gonna give it heck all weekend aboard the Daisy Mae.
Might be the last for linesiders as the Memorial Day zoo boaters will be out next weekend.
Starting to compile gear for the Big Pond

Newburgh Bridge is approximately 20 minutes from my house.  Maybe I should go over to Beacon and try my luck.   

I gotta say this about fish fighting stripers. They are big, they are strong , they are not trout..
My fish this year and many years past have been caught on a 9' 4-20# test rating Ugly Stick Spinning rod.. The thing is a whip.. It was my second ever steelhead rod for drifting sacs.. My first was a fly rod/spin reel..
Yup , this rod is 32 years old and has fought steel, salmon and stripers.. My buddy was amazed how it was bent to the water with 20 lb big game line..
Largest fish to date on that rod was 2011 40 # Striped Bass.. Looking for that 60+ this weekend..
I have slowly but surly started upgrading / adding in my gear but the old rod (s) will still produce the greatest memories..
 
Peace & Tuna

Better make a double batch of Jack's salsa just in case.
