If I'm thinking of the same place... last year it SUCKED (at least for the most part)

I don't think anyone intended to be elitist here, but many of us are gravely concerned about the state of the striper, thus it pains us to see the future of the fishery being mistreated and disrespected.

Nothing wrong with catching some schools for fun, but no need to beat the snot out of 100 just to pad your log numbers.

Treat the lil guys with respect by using single barbless hooks, over matched tackle to keep the fight short to reduce stress to the fish, and release them gently and nonone will give you he'll.

And those little guys and gals will return the favor by spawning more bass for the future.

Good people only torture bluefish I guess.How is it good conscience to abuse one species and treat others with respect?There are certainly more bass around than blues.Hypocrisy......I guess this site will never be bluefish.com. I just don't undersand how it becomes a running joke to stab,torture and disrespect one species and then ride a white horse regarding misteatment of another.Whatever makes you happy I suppose.

One night I was fishing up at Plum Island and there were 2 guys drinking and fishing about 20 yards from me. They were fine, no noise, not causing any trouble but they were clearly getting drunk! So about 2 hours later this joker shows up and starts casting about 10 yards from the 2 drunk guys.

The joker catches a small bluefish and proceeds to take a knife and puts in through the fishes eyes! One of the drunk guys sees this is says something to the effect of "you should stop being cruel like that" to which the joke tells him to f*ck off!

The drunk guy takes off his shoe and sock and fills up the sock with lead and goes over and starts beating the day lights out of the guy! I have to admit, I was laughing my ass off! :rotf2: The only thing that saved that clown was the guy was too drunk to chase him down the beach but he definately got in a couple do BIG THUMPS cause I could hear it hitting the mark! (that, and hearing the guy screaming). It was quite a site to see. I will also admit I did not have an ounce of sympathy for the savage that did that to the Bluefish.

saw some good fish tosses last night :hs:
