You asked for a smile

[Baitbucket]

Well, you guys have been asking for a smile in some of my pics, so here you go 

Got out Sunday afternoon  with Stripernut and Stripernut Sr, and as always, Allan was able to put us on some fish.

My first striper in about 7 or 8 years.

34in 14lbs - Hit my plastic bait on top water. Was awesome.



Allan gave me a lesson in filleting and he filleted it up. We split it up as there was plenty for a good meal for all 3 of us.

I trimmed out most of the fat this morning.
Not perfect, but was good practice.

A good time as always fishing with you! Now if I could only get my father to chill out a bit, but some things will never change!
