A striped bass caught while deep sea, jigging, trolling, light tackle fishing in Boston, Suffolk County

The boat gently rocks as we cast our lines. Sunlight glimmers on the water. A sudden tug. The reel screams. A striped bass leaps. Its silver scales flash. The rod bends. The fish dives deep. We hold on tight. Slowly we gain ground. The net is ready. One final surge. We lift the bass aboard. A beautiful catch. High fives all around. Another memory made on the South Shore.
