Highlights in the Twilight

Not so long ago Tyler and his future brother-in-law Justin were out for some springtime fishing with Legends Outdoors.  They wanted to get out for a night time trip and try for some more stripers so they booked another trip and also took along Alex who is Tyler's brother.  These three men headed out on an evening with cloudy skies and a chill in the April air with calm conditions.  The water temperatures were 46-48 depending on location and the anticipation was high.  It didn't take long for them to get on the board as the bites came fast and furious during the night.  Now an outing for these elusive fish where one is caught is a success, but the kind of night this trio had was on another level of that.  They had well over 20 fish hooked including at one point all three were handling a fish with one being just landed and the other two on the lines.  A few others were missed or lost during the outing.  They landed a confirmed 14 striped bass, 2 nice walleyes and a healthy smallmouth bass for their total tally!  All the fish were released alive.  This was quite a night and one I am sure they will always remember and talk about for years to come!
