"Armstrong discounts overfishing and seals as the culprits."
Maybe not the only culprits, but how can you just dismiss these two factors. Anyone on the cape will tell you what the seals have done to the inshore fishery. And as far as overfishing goes, how can you not look at what goes on with recs like the massacre at the canal every spring, the charters keeping every fish they can multiple times a day, etc. There are many factors affecting the striped bass and to overlook these two is short sighted IMO.....
