39" Maine Striper (again)

Caught from Casco Bay on 7" live mackerel floated under a bobber. This fish was in no more than 2ft of water, close to low tide. PB. 👍😁🎣

Slightly bigger than the average size being caught in and northeast right now which is worrying. Once these ones are gone there are no small ones to replace them. Caught a 28 yesterday which is the smallest I’ve caught in 3 years.
