The boat gently rocks as we cruise out to sea. Seagulls circle overhead. The sun peeks through clouds casting a golden glow on the water. Brian stands ready with his rod. The anticipation builds. Suddenly the line goes taut. A flash of silver breaks the surface. The striped bass fights hard. Brian reels steadily. The fish comes alongside. I net it carefully. An 18-inch beauty. We admire its sleek form and bold stripes. A perfect catch to start the day. The fish returns to the depths. We continue our search for more stripers. The ocean stretches endlessly before us. Another day of adventure on Cape Cod waters.
