From Zero to Hero (with a Blue Joke Mixed in)! Striped Bass Fishing Doesn't Get Better or Funnier

I can't remember the last time I laughed this hard on a charter. Joining me this early June morning were Vinny, Eddie and Mark - the Webster's Dictionary definition of the word "character!"
The fishing started slow with the guys struggling to understand the style of fishing we were doing, especially Vinny. Once they got it though, the bass action was non-strop with 27 bass caught, many over slot with the boys only retaining their limit.
The jokes were flying all trip and we end the trip with an especially memorable one from Vinny which, despite my better judgement, I fell for hook, line and sinker!

Nice job John. The beginning was brutal, you have patience

Generally speaking, level wind reels don’t drop quick enough for that application. Nice to see your in business, thanks.

@@kolbyhumbert2680 easy trip - a hair further west than the Race

[@kolbyhumbert2680]

@@jiggingjerks Roger that. You just use the bucktail & the fat cow & drift with it, I’m guessing the drift speed makes the fat cow have action?

[@googeelou]

Which boat is this John?

[@jiggingjerks]

This is my new boat, the Eastward 24
