Met with Capt Nemo from the board this morning and headed out. Dropped lines in around 7:00am and within 10 minutes first fish on. Handed the rod to Capt Nemo and the fight was on! After a good fight we got him in the boat 50" and 49lbs 12oz!!! This was Capt Nemo's first Virginia striper. The rest of the day was pretty slow, we only managed 3 more fish but one of them was a 44 1/2" release citation for me. The other two were about 20 and 37lbs. All in all a good day. What a way for Capt Nemo to start his Virginia fishing adventures. Thanks for coming along for the ride Darryl. Here are the pics, I think that you can figure out which fish is which.

By the way that is 6 citations in three days on my boat!!

Ncie job...from the sound of the reports, the big cows are coming home!!

Were you dropping eels? Those are some nice fish. You have had a good run the past few days.

Wow. Talk about starting at the top. Pretty work guys!

Sweet work. I should of left my boat at home and went with you.

Nothing but respect... Do you still need a ho?

Nice Fishey

Awesome fish!

Nice class of fish guys. Where were you if you don't mind my asking?

Pretty work!

Congrats on the fish, hope your buddy doesn't think that everytime you go out you have success with such quality fish.

Well guys, I moved to Virginia last Saturday and met Mike on this site Wednesday night. On the boat ride out Mike said I was going to catch the biggest striper of my fishing carrier. After 10 minutes of fishing I was hooked into a freight train. I think I'm going to like it here in VA.

Thanks for sharing the pictures of the excellent catch.

Would you share any information on general location or technique?

Welcome Capt nemo. Now you are going to be spoiled for any other trips. How can you top a 50#er? You need to go for the state record Great work.

We caught these the same way we caught the others this week, drifting cape charles.

Way to go guys ! You guys are killing me, i am here in texas ! I had a crab pasta with fake crab in it last night ! I'll be home tomorrow, I wonder if i can fish sunday morning or if the wife will be mad... Oh well won't be the first time!

Do you really need to ask that?!? OF COURSE she'll be mad! Mine was when I asked yesterday - but I still went! I keep telling myself that I will not ask permission next time, but I keep forgetting...

I feel the need to tick her off again - if you need a tag-a-long, bmail me your # and our wives can be mad together.

Sick!!! absolutely Sick!!! U da man!!!

That looks like the Front 4 of the 86/87 Redskins also known as the Hawgs.
