Future loyal reader of the T-D Outdoors column Jack Wilson (above), a Hanover resident, hauled in his first striped bass recently. Not bad for nine years old!

Jack’s dad, Kris, sent in this description.
The striper weighed 15 lbs—his first striper ever. He caught 2 total along with 4 catfish and several hundred sunfish. Caught it on a live minnow at Smith Mountain lake [this past] Monday morning around 7 a.m. fishing near the #39 bouy in about 45 feet of water. His buddy Adam Brackley caught 2 stripers also - slightly smaller but both decent fish in the 10-12-lb range.
