Hank Slays them!

After being kept off the lake on our last attempt, my neighbor Hank wasn't going to be shortchanged on our second attempt to catch some Striped Bass. It was windy and the fish were scattered around the lake but when we were over them, they were ferocious! We boated a good many fish and Hank had all he could manage. I don't think he had any idea catching a Striped Bass would be so physical! I hope he didn't mess up his golf swing; his monster of the day took a lot of energy and just about killed the two of us trying to get it back into the lake. But in the end, his giant 24 lb'er swam back on it's own and hopefully will double in the size in the next 5 years. Check out the photo's here.
