Sorry, that is B.S. every charter boat that holds federal licenses has to report every trip on a Vessel trip report form no matter where they have been fishing and no matter what species they have been fishing for. I'd wager that somewhere around 99% of all charter/party boats hold federal licenses, so the vast majority of the striped bass catch by charter/party boats is being reported.
