personally, I think its just a matter of bait being offshore = fish being offshore this year. next year it may be the opposite. who knows? there are so many factors that lead to this.
bait and fish being offshore in turn makes stripers easier to catch for the boat guys who really know what they're doing out there (especially commerical guys, who keep many fish, and bigger fish pay more, which leads to word getting around that there are big fish everwhere offshore) and harder for surf guys and more novice & more shallow water focused boaters. since it is now harder for the majority of anglers, especially anglers who tend to post here, opinions sway towards "there must be something wrong".
