Striped Bass caught jigging in East Dennis MA, best fishing

The boat rocks gently as we cast our lines. Sunlight glimmers on the water. A cool breeze carries the scent of salt. Suddenly my rod bends. The fish fights hard. Its silver sides flash as it leaps. We net a beautiful striped bass. Its dark lines contrast against its pale body. We admire our catch before releasing it back to the sea. The striped bass swims away leaving only ripples and memories.
