First Migrating Fish!

 Right on schedule, I landed my first migrating striper of the year along the oceanfront today. I knew it was a new fish because of the sea lice on its body.  The fish was just shy of a slot.  It hit a 4-inch Cocahoe minnow fished off a one ounce jighead. I had one other hit. I fished multiple spots and made a lot of casts but it was just this one fish. I tried in the Bay yesterday and blanked.

So, the season has started, and will only get better from here.

Its the first migrating striper of the year for me.  Look closely
and you will see sea lice on the back half of the fish.
