Local accounts are helpful but tell us little depending on scale is the important part.
Remember, it works both ways. Fantastic fishing in a few locations in no way, shape, or form is indicative of the stock's health. Distribution of a species, both across age range and geographic area is a far better indication of what is going on than a mess of 30 lb bass off race point or 60 lb bass off RI.
