Wow Beth! That striped bass is huge! What other species would you normally target on the Hudson? I bet you've got a nice collection of picture, which I'd love you to share on here.
I'm so sorry to hear that you are not well, but glad that you can still enjoy time out on the water in your boat. Boats sure do add another dimension to our lives, and I get lots of enjoyment out of mine, even when not fishing. Care to share a photo of your boat? Would love to see what gets you out on the water.
Thanks for your post, and wishing that you get well
