Gusto,
Look at the Salty Dogs. They just got NJ to pass a bill that bans bunker reduction in their waters. The internet allowed them to get the word out and make it a group action. So while the internet can look bad at times, it also has a somewhat positive side as well.

Patrick, I think you are mistaken. NJ didn't pass the Bunker reduction boat ban bill yet, it has passed the Aggriculture Committee which is the hardest step. It now gets read the congress and still has many steps to go before it is law. But you are right the internet had alot to do with gathering up the troops to fight for this bill.
Slammer, believe me you don't have to go anywhere-we are not elitists. I'm sure you were just being sarcastic.
Gusto, maybe your observations about this site are just your opinion. New people to the sport have questions so they ask, I think their questions are getting answered but you also have to remember it is fishing season and we are out fishing as well (more than on the computer). Your attitude doesn't seem to reflect that you are a person that would take a kid fishing and try to start him/her off on the right foot. Lighten up a bit huh? Are you really 16 years young? If you don't like what you have been reading here lately then don't read it or go elsewhere, none of us expect all the posts to be interesting and informative. As far as spots, well mostly just general areas are given- the stripers are everywhere just go catch one and while you're at it post a picture of one that you caught so we know you are serious too.
