When I started fishing 40 years ago, it was pretty fun. Not to many crowds, bait was free, there was plenty of fish, big ones

Now I need a permit for every herring run (only to get 6-10 fish a day), all the old spots are crowded as like never before, pogies are brought in from NJ, cost $1.00-$1.50 each
and I can't find anywhere to snatch them from shore anymore.

Sea worms are $5.00 a dozen for small ones

I still fish, because I love it. I don't think I'll ever stop but,
Fishing just isn't the same.
