A Good Day in the Bay

By: Capt. Hap Farrell

This last Saturday I had the Hammond brothers, John and Jim, on a full day trip out of Rock Harbor. They come with me once a year, They both are dentist and live in central Mass. Anyway, they had a particularly good year this time. It's not that they don't get a fair amount of stripers when they go, but fishing has been pretty easy in years past, This season you have to work for your fish at times. Well, you tell me if this load of fish had them working a bit.
