I believe that the fishing is hurting inshore. Reports of all kinds of bass in the EEZ and on Stellwagen make me think that the stocks might not be as endangered as others think but something drastic is definetly taking place inshore to alter thier historic seasonal habitations. Seals?

Water quality?

Bait availablity?

I think all may be contributing but not being a research scientist it's purely speculative on my part.
One thing is for sure they are defintely as litoral as they always had been. Something is going on.

What I do not know.
