well put. I've been watchin this thread for a couple days now an about everything has been mentioned. Fact is the number of stripers is on a serious decline. So wether an commercial or a sportfisherman we all need to back away from the trough an look what needs to be done for the fish, Not who gets what quota,who's at fault or to blame. we need to pull our heads out of our perspective posteriors an pressure the poleticians to slow things down before we are back in the 70,s again.Like my old freind Bob Pond used to preach. Only we can fix what we break. Greed an selfishness do nothing but hurt us all. Nice thing to help PETA with it's devide an conquer tactics. Damn are we dumb sometimes.
I love spending a night out with my secon wife a large female striped bass. Love sharing it with freinds also. Same as you commercial guys do when not chasing stripers for that new motor or SUV or those sportfishermen that spend hrs playin the blame game, We all love and enjoy fishing wether it be Striper or trout fishing so lets all do a bit to fix things before it get too far gone to fix, my thought Ron
