Rockfish survey finds drop in bay spawning

I don't fish there, but heard the Spring runs in the Chesapeake and Delaware were also poor, in terms of fish caught. Anyone else have any info about this?

I forgot to reference this in some recent threads. Thanks for initially bringing it up, seamonkey.
Pinhead, this is kind of a late response but the 2012 Chesapeake YOY was the lowest ever since the Moratorium..

Food for thought, if you are looking to see where this is trending....

It's going to get lower,because snot slinging and bunker has become popular and is wiping out the breeders before they spawn.

I am not a fan of snot.

I do believe regulations need to be changed big time ASAP to save the bass from fisherman.
