Fishing Report Week Ending 6.21.09

Once again it was a week of rain, cold and Striped Bass. Not sure when we will really get summer but at least the Striped Bass are here. We did have one slow trip this week.

We got 7or 8 fish but considering that in the morning we got over 25 it just wasn't right.

The fish were around but just wouldn't cooperate. We got to one spot and caught 3 within about 10 minutes and then not another hit till we moved. It isn't usually like that,

find a few and there are more there as well. Even our slow trip was a great experience though, as we had 3 generations aboard for a real fathers day treat and we all got to see Dylan with his first striped bass. Good job buddy!!

Except for that one slow trip, every other trip this week yielded 15-25 fish. We caught a few in the 30" range as well as a fat 34" fish on Sat.

Monday was cold with temps in the mid 50's and with out of state clients from Florida, they were wearing everything they brought, and borrowed some clothes from one of my friends at the marina. They had a great time though and were really impressed with the great inshore fishery NH has to offer. Friday on the other hand was warmer but it was rain, rain and more rain. Thanks to the bimini top both morning and afternoon customers stayed fairly dry, but after 9 hours on the water, with much of my time outside of the tops cover I was wet. The rest of the week was damp weather, except for Saturday when the sun came out and it was just a beautiful day.

Tight Lines.
