John Harris and son

April 3rd, 2008 ; Cloudy and rain, Water temp 53*.

Suppose to pick clients up at 6 but they were running late so I went and caught bait. While I was catching bait I saw Stripers busting baits on the surface and wished my clients were there. I finally picked my clients up at 8am and we set up on a flat pulling boards and a downline. We were late getting started and got in on the tail end of the morning bite but managed to put a few nice Stripers in the boat. The wind got up and changed directions and started to blow out of the east and shut the fish off. We fished the rest of the day with little more success. All day I kept wondering " What could we have caught if we could have got an early start"? Well , the guys had a good father - son outing and ended well.
