The Striped Bass are Back!

An old salt fisherman from the east end of Long Island once told me a sure sign that the striped bass are back is when the dandelions start to bloom. I saw a bunch of them in Central Park this morning.

So hopes springs eternal that this season will be much better than last for the striped bass - and I think I will head down to the East River with some blood worms this weekend, to try my luck behind Gracie Mansion. Here's to a great 2012 season!
