RE:Ways to improve the Mortalitly rate of recreational catch and release Striper fishing?
JOHN, Saltheart,
Salthart, hit the nail right on the head. this wips them. and the larger ones get wipped even more. one of the best eelmen I know ones told me he doesent think a stouter rod wips them as bad as the lite equipment does. he sells his fish, but when the selling season is over, he takes his table meat home and drives away from them, while they ar still feeding. Rather than do harm to them.
The only other thing I could add as a personal note is Please dont pick them up by there Gill plate, and if you do please stay as clear of the gills as possible, this is like sticking your hand's into some ones lungs. handel them by there lower Jaw if you can.
