"With these reductions in bag limits in NY and NJ over the past few years the striped bass population has to have increased!"

Just read this tonight. You can't fix stupid.

See this one posted a lot:
The stripers are all over. If you are not finding them then you don't know how to fish.

So true. Could not agree more.

"Stripers all over can't get away from them! Got two stripers in bay yesterday"

^^^What happens if the guy doubles his catch and gets four stripers in one day? Is it epic? LOLOLOL

[lostatsea]

Theres probably a difference in expectations when you are younger or older. The younger generation wants to fish for an hour and go home, so two fish it's probably great for them.

Millenials. They won't go fishing unless there are reports on the interweb.

'All you folks talking about releasing everything are people who don't catch fish.'

What a turd bag!

And if they catch 20 they crap their pants and have to immediately text all their friends about it. Yeah we crushed it. Boo yah. FB and instagram as well.

I have heard this Charter Captain say this more than once and I am so sick of it I want to go to the forum and register just to tell him he is full of crap.

"Hook and line fisherman will never deplete the stocks only commercial nets killing everything in there path!"

A common misconception. When you consider comms catch less bass overall than recs, with the exception of the poaching. This time if the bass fishery goes downhill it will be the fault of the recs.
