Badass Bass


Tommy O and I spotted some bird activity between Haste Island and Coney Island outside of Salem Harbor this afternoon.
~
After bringing to bear some of our superior fishing skills, we landed this nice 26" schoolie on a surface popper.
~
This striped bass put up a very commendable, yet completely fruitless fight and we promptly returned him to the brine to fight another day.
~
Just a couple more inches and we would have debated whether we should grill him, broil him or put him in the turkey fryer.
