When I started fishing, it was to fill the freezer. We'd codfish in March and April from shore. Do stripers when they came. And the annual Quincy Bay trip finished it off. Today I still enjoy the security of having a few fillets in the freezer, but it's not like it was; PACKED! I keep the smallish keepers and send the cows home. I owe them that. And they are the future of the fishery. Keeping the legal limit of keepers is ok, but I have this debt to the species. They got me through, and I'll see them through. Good thread, this one...
