I've always felt floobies don't get their proper respect up here. Granted, this is an SB site, but still, people forget that 20 years ago before the stripers came back, they were almost the only game in town. I have fond memories of coming off plane in '90 in my Dad's Grady White
right smack into a big school of them feeding off Block Island.

To me, while they are not as good eating as stripers (obviously, but what is?) they are great battlers who are a hell of a fight for any fisherman. I don't mind catching (or eating) them at all, and count it a good day when I can boat a couple of nice six or seven lbers (especially after a little sleighride in the 'yak). I look forward to catching more.
