April 2003

Here's our largest striper of the new season, a 48 inch whopper, caught April 30 by Omar Biagas of Ava Construction Services.  This one deserves a space over the mantle!
Here's the rest of the Ava crew...

What a beautiful sight -- sunrise on a reasonably calm day during mid-April not far from Chesapeake Beach.
And here we have Captain Drew with our first fish of the new season.  Everything points to a great trophy season in our part of the Bay.
