There is NO cure for stupid and when it comes to managing this resource, we just never learn from our mistakes. My old fishing milk run was Scituate to Cohasset and occasionally up to Hull. Back in the day a slow day was around 50-70 fish with a number of keepers mixed in and then a good day turned into a handfull of fish. At that point I flipped to Westport and a better mix of potential species to fish for and I'm still loving that area.

OTW recently addressed the decline and boasted they are doing their part, by making their tourney a no kill; have to wonder if the killing is still being done by the handling required to enter anyway. Thankfully at this point in my life, I'm actually more interested in what my tee times are for my three weekdays with my golfing buddies.
