That's a couple of really nice catches! The striper is fantastic for priest.

I would say that would make a tourney winning pair most any day of the week out there. Well done.

Awesome day out there, Merv! What's this releasing thing all about? How do you make fish tacos if you release the fish? :D

It's been a long time since I've seen a report of a 20 pound rockfish out of JPP, very well done! The Hybrids I catch out there are bigger than the rockfish I catch in that lake haha

Nice fish Merv!

Just an FYI though, once a fish has been placed on a stringer it is considered in your possession and part of your creel. Those fish can't be released. It aids in reducing delayed mortality.

Guess that was an "OOPSIE" on my part.

You can tell us that you and Jimmy had taco Tuesday at your house. We don't judge you for eating striped fish :D

If I had caught those the delay until mortality would be very short :D

Nice fish. It has been a couple years since I have found stripers on Priest. Last time I did I caught 3 that all bottomed out my 30 lb bogas. Not by much, but for sure weighed just over 30. They were showing up at about 1:45 am on a point and would crush a 5" bone redfin.
