    Great Day Striper Fishing

    6 Hour Trip – Hudson River Stripers • 2 adults

    Awesome day!! Striper fishing has been on my bucket list for years, this was all I hoped for and more. Set up with Captain Mike with Reel Addicted Charters out of Port Ewen. Was easy, appreciated him touching base the day before and answering our questions. Ryan and John took us out for the afternoon. Bite was on immediately, couldn't keep all the lines in the water. Things slowed down later in the afternoon, team was constantly in contact and comparing notes. Fish finder was great, we knew the stripers were there. Just had to work it, be patient as the tide shifted and try a few spots. Sure enough, the team's knowledge and gear got us into a few more including two really big fish right at the end of day. Fished many years, fabulous experience with a great crew! Friendly, professional, super nice boat, and really fun to fish with. Looking forward to doing it again!
