I have these pictures published in Jan 1972 in a Fenwick Rod Newsletter. This actually happened at the Cape Hatteras National Seashore Area. These guys allegedly hauled 500,000 pounds of Striper in a week.
I am uncertain whether this continues today. I do know that there is netting going on in Virginia as we speak.

This is why everyone should join Stipers forever.

This is a non-profit organization that is pushing for a legislative ban on commercial fishing for Stripers. They are also the only group that I am aware of that is pushing to have Stripe Bass declared a "Game Fish only".
