I managed to catch a few stripers while in CT cleaning out my parents basement and attic!

Looks like fun.  They call them "diaper stripers" right?  Sounds better with a NE accent too.

Most of the one I caught were in fact babies but the 2 pictured above were over 20 inches.......no matter the size they still fight well!

Nice job. I've cleaned out basements and attics, but never found an ocean or any stripahs while doing so.

I caught some in the low twenties in the fall that were like shaped like footballs, full of bait and fattening up. Wish the law would've allowed me to eat one ::)

I literally cleaned out 3 tons of junk and wouldn't have been surprised to find either  ;D

I'd work until late afternoon then go take some time for myself by wetting a line.. I never expected to catch anything....

When I cleaned out my parents place this year, I with help loaded three 40 yard dumpsters. That didn't include all the stuff I gave away.
