    I wanted to nominate this statement for the clueless DB of the year award, read it today.

    "Here is my thoughts on "spot burning". In the state of New Jersey there is no such thing period. There is no secret spot."

    Things are getting out of control. Now guys are purposely proud of spot burning.
    This was posted on a local FB page.
    " Fxxx the hater out there. When I have time to hit the beach I will contribute and do more spot burn."

    This was posted in an allegedly serious discussion on fishing and striped bass numbers. The guy who posted it is a moderator, and claims to be an expert on stripers. Idiot.
    "As in all species the MALES are larger. We should be preserving the smaller females if you really care about the future of stripers"

    I think I might know him. He's in a fishing club and his last big striper he caught like 8 years ago, 32 lb. Since then he just trolls the internet and finds his fish from others reports. That's the problem with social media everybody's an expert LOL. I don't know a lot about striper migration or the science, so I keep my mouth shut when I don't know something. Lmao at his comment tho. Even I know that females are bigger!

    Internet professor. Buy yourself a Vs, a Pro Staff Elite Rod, breathable waders, and make sure you always carry your role of fluoro leader material clipped and ready to make new leaders. The very picture of the cool Elite surfcaster. Throw in the internet browsing for a few months, and anyone can be an expert on striped bass. The above is sooooo off the mark I would like to meet that guy in person and see if he really knows how to fish.
