Capt. Jot Owens; Jot It Down Fishing Charters LLC

Fishin' Topsail

What a super nice day on the river yesterday; warm air, light winds and a good Striped Bass bite! The big one of the day was my personal biggest one of the year. This fish was as round as she was long and let me tell you one great fight on a PENN Conflict 2500 spinning reel with a PENN Regiment 7’ 8 to 15 class rod! It was hard to stop her runs a few times! The Striper was tagged and released in good health just after photo.

Wow! Great catch! Looks like Capt. Jot is ON THE FISH!
Congrats guys!
Till next time....
