A Special Mother’s Day Trip
I
received a call from Joe Levy he was interested in a Mother’s Day Fishing trip for his wife, Paige, along with his Daughter
Mia ,his Son Kole and brother in law Jarrett. The previous day’s fishing was slow we were hopeful we would get
a fish for Paige, Joe said she loves fishing and wanted to spend the day on the water with her family. They arrived at the
boat before 6 am, after introductions, we went over the boat, safety equipment, a few safety rules, and what to expect for
the day, threw the dock lines and worked our way to the fishing area. My wife Diann decided to join us today along with mate
Kenny. We stopped short of where we finished fishing the previous day and within 10 minutes we had our first fish on of course,
Mom was first to go! She did a great job fighting her fish with her family cheering her on she decked a 33 lb striper.
When young Kole saw Mom’s fish his jaw dropped and Mia couldn’t believe the size of the fish. With some of the
pressure off and after pictures were taken we got back to fishing. Diann was a big help today behind the scene keeping things
organized and clearing lines.
We stayed in the area for awhile and did not get a bite, until we moved in a little
then Jarrett was up he caught a fish in the 30lb class range. We had our next bite for Kole and ½ way to the boat the
fish came unbuttoned, he was determined and he landed our next one, boy was he excited! We kept in the same area for awhile
and Mia was working on a fish and another came off then she caught her fish for the day about the same size as her brothers.
Now we wanted to get a fish for Joe, we get the bite and we pulled the hook on this one real close to the boat (oh No!) ,
Now this was disappointing, Joe has been working double time today helping his kids get their fish in , leaning over them
helping , his back had to be feeling it. To lose this one hurt in more ways than one! It was getting a little rough at this
point we reset everything and got another bite; Joe was up and got this one to the boat! Turned out nice everyone landed a
fish today, the morning conditions were perfect. Days like this remind us of how lucky we are to do this, being able to share
such a special day with a wonderful family, and introduce kids to fishing, makes us all just feel good inside. We finished
with 5 total fish measuring between 41 and 44 inches the heaviest was 34 lbs and dropped 3 fish.
