Ryan and I fished this afternoon. We got one fish, a 31 or 32" striper. Raced back to the dock, quickly unloaded the boat and headed to Lacey Marine at 5:40pm. Normally it is about a five minute ride by car. Today the power plant had a shift change and they basically closed Rt 9 for about fifteen minutes to let the workers cross the highway. We were two minutes too late. We will weigh the fish tomorrow. I guess the fish is about 13lbs.
As far as I know this IS the fish to beat. Anybody catch anything bigger?
