When the thread started, here is what I was looking for. I probably should have elaborated. I don't boat fish, my life is complicated enough. So I was really thinking think of how many folks are there fishing from the MA and RI shore of from small boats close to the shore, are in the game. I really wasn't thinking about philosophical issues or about the lucky cousin who fished once and nailed a trophy.
I would think that anyone on this board is more than a casual striperman. With what resources we have (time, money, tackle, gear), we are still getting out, trying to do it right, and always looking to get better. So let's say that is the base category. There is got to be someone here who like to play with numbers who can come up with an approxiamtion at how many in MA and RI. Is it 2500, 5000, 10000, 100000? Didn't want to exclude other states, just trying to simplify.
JohnR, What percentage on this site is from MA, RI (approximate)? Guess % surfcaster or close to shore boaters for Stripers? Would they all fish in MA/RI? What % of the population of all in this category does this represent? I'm thinking that the final number is in the 4 figure range.
