The sun rises over Scituate Harbor. Waves lap gently against the hull. The crew boards eagerly. Fishing rods stand ready. The air is crisp and salty. Seagulls circle overhead. The engine roars to life. We set course for deeper waters. Anticipation builds. Lines are cast. The wait begins. Suddenly a tug. A flash of silver. The fight is on. A magnificent striped bass breaks the surface. Cameras click. Grins all around. Another perfect day on the water.
