Mike you make a good point about the abundance of large bait, which would obviously make the larger fish more vunerable. Back in the late 80's when the harbors were so thick with poggies you could walk on them, if I didn't catch a large most trips out something was wrong.
Those days IMHO are gone. Do the same numbers of 30, 40 and 50 lbers still exist; I don't think so. Similar numbers of fish that large would need a food population of equal value, if not similar size. The bass the year before last, seemed to be running lean all year long, so if the schoolies aren't looking that healthy, I question if the food base is healthy enough to support the same numbers you had in the past.
Tight lines.
