I was 9 in 1982 but I would spend every summer on cuttyhunk for weeks at a time with my grandparents. This was my first introduction to striped bass and I would hitch a ride on a golf cart with a married couple on their golf cart down to southwest point. I'd watch them wade out to their knees in yellow foul weather gear and throw atom striper swiper poppers. They would end up with 10 or 15 bass.. All around 15-25 lbs and then cart them back to the town dock. Is get one that I would bring out to the boat for dinner. They made it look easy. I'm certain that if I went there now and replicated their technique, I'd be lucky to pick up 2 or 3 if any...
But, I talk to south county guys and they said at that time south county was devoid of striped bass... Nada. Sounds a lot like today.
