[QUOTE=numbskull;789180]Hence, my post. What is worse for the striped bass population, a dead schoolie or a dead 40lb fish?
No schoolies, no 40 lb fish. Both bad.
Last week in Maine i pointed out to a guy on the beach that the fish he was keeping was over the size limit. (Maine = 1 fish a day between 20-26 inches OR 1 fish over 40 inches). His was clearly low 30's. He gave me a "don't be an a-hole" look and continued on his way with the fish, big grin on his poaching mug.
