This morning was freezing but it didn’t stop return client Jay along with his 7yr old son Justin, nephews TJ and Ryan, and father in law Bob from fishing on a 6hr striped bass charter with us. We left early to try and beat the fleet in hopes of finding fish before the boat traffic scattered them. We had to look around for a couple hours but finally found a couple fish by ourselves away from the fleet. The fish were smaller, but within a half hour of working good marks we had 2 keepers in the box. We worked the area some more but after several boats moved in, the fish scattered and we were not able to get back on them. In the end, it was cold but the weather ended up being beautiful and we were also able to put 7yr old Justin on his first ever striped bass!
