I re-read it every winter when the walls start to close in and the wind moans every night.

The first 40 inch striped bass was caught at Catskill, NY 120 miles north of NY City last Sunday.

If you check out the Riverbasin internet site the Owner posts two to three reports a week. Tom Gentalen is a great angler and has over 25 years of striped bass, lagre and small mouth bass and trout records.
