On Wednesday night saw a guy bring in two nice keeper striped bass (one close to 40 inches) at Hingham YC. He had snagged and live lined porgies near Bumpkin island.

Thursday afternoon, I went out but was unable to see or snag a porgie.

This morning I went out and the guy was out there and was nice enough to show we how to spot the fish. First one I snagged something took it soon after and I missed setting the hook. The second one didn’t get taken but we’d drifted pretty quickly off the pod, so I took to Hull gut, where I either hooked the biggest fish yet, or snagged him on the bottom. I’m thinking the later is probably more likely.

Back at dock I threw out my trusty pink RonZ for shits and giggles, and wouldn’t you know it on 3rd cast hooked a nice fish just below legal size. The crazy thing was there was a fish that came up to see what was going on that was even bigger… Guess I could have saved myself some gas!
