Ahhh Fin Addiction... But then the "experts" & Regulators keep telling us that it's us (mostly C. & R .) "Recs." that kill most of the Bass being removed from the biomass! :rolleyes:

Seems your observations Cap. prove that to be a lot of bull, as I've believed & observed all along myself! Take the price off the Stripers' head-- the #20+ Bass especially... and I'm quite sure 90% less Bass would be killed than today under current regs. Oh, I know... the "data" says otherwise!-- it says us Recs. just love eating big Stripers almost every night apparently! :doh:

No price on Stripers over #20... GAMEFISH NOW!... then we'll see big Bass everywhere, including in the Surf everywhere they used to be, again! (How was your surf- season, Rhody, Cape & N. Shore MA? :crying:

Bob, always great to see you with Bass! Nice to "meet" your Dad too!-- I thought I was a lot like my Dad!-- you guys are clones!

Check your facts out. It is quite clear that recs kill waaayyy more than commercial guys. We have a quota, there is no quota for rec guys. 2 fish at 28" is ridiculous a 28" fish is a glorified schoolie.

Ok lets not turn a great day with my dad to a recs verses comms battle

thanks
