Ryan Collins, founder of the fishing media group My Fishing Cape Cod, caught the first officially documented Martha’s Vineyard striper of 2017, on April 19 at about 3 pm.
Mr. Collins told The Times he later found out that Islander Abe Pieciak caught a striper about three hours earlier that he did, around 12 noon. Mr. Pieciak was the first fisherman to post a caught striper on the Larry’s Tackle Shop Facebook page; however, it was not documented with a photo.
Mr. Collins also has video of his catch.
