The two pics. are my son and his 6lb. 8oz. Hybrid Striped Bass he caught a couple of weeks ago while camping at one of the local lakes with some friends.
This is the second one that he has caught at the same place. The first time we didn't get any pics.

The story of this catch is the best part. I'll give you the highlights and you put it together from there.-----Time between 3 and 4 AM----4 or 5 friends camping out, partying, and cat fishing--- Poles set up on shore with the typical line on the can, bail open (or at least it should be) trick----- someone thinks they hear a can go----nope!---then they see one of the cans go---ok!---now everybody is looking----my son--"Hey where is my pole?"----the guy that is reeling in what they think is a fish is actually my son's line----Now into the lake---follow the line down----up with the pole----"Hur-ray"---line tangled----line breaks---throw pole back to friend----hang on line with fish on other end---half hour later (or what seemed like)
Wet son and Fish emerge from Lake!

Heard the story sveral times from all of them and it is always the same. I only wish I was there with the camera, it had to be a site!
