"The $50,000 grant from Omega Protein, the leading commercial fishing employer in Vierginia, will be matched with federal funds and used to help clean up Paradise Creek on the Chesapeake Bay."

Talk about the irony

Save the Pogies

Too many stripers. Next'll be space aliens. In the late 1800's there were so many stripers that ferry riders from NYC to the South Shore used to amuse themselves by shooting them and there were plenty of bunker then (not mention river herring). You want a report, all you have to do is pay for it.......

You tell Slip! If th bass were eating all the pogie fry then the bass would populate the shallow harbors and coves more, because thats where the juvies can be found.
