Striped Bass caught while Deep Sea Jigging at 18 Shipyard Dr

The boat rocked gently as we cast our lines. Sunlight glinted off the water. A cool breeze carried the scent of salt. Seagulls circled overhead. Suddenly my rod bent. The fish fought hard. We saw a flash of silver. A striped bass broke the surface. It was a beauty. We admired its size before releasing it. The day was perfect. Friends laughed. Stories were shared. We headed back to shore. Memories were made. Fishing is more than catching fish. It's about connection. With nature. With each other. This moment would stay with us.
