Poll:How does this season stack up?
Having seen and heard of so many anglers (and non-anglers) catching large and numerous fish, I wonder how this 2001 season rates with past seasons, year to date. Is it a banner year for you? Is it average? Below average? How would you rate the quality of fish you have seen?
Personally, I have fished less (due to work), but have been catching at approximately same rate for time spent with wet lines. Shore fishing seems to be slowing, as the boat anglers have been mopping up with live macs. Still working plugs, flies, and plastics whenever possible, but moving towards bait, as that seems to be more effective. More keepers than last year at this time, and they seem to have been thicker on the whole. Goal for year is to get first keepers for my kids.
Overall, I would rate 2001 as the most productive striper fishing year overall locally, and hope to get my cow soon!
Whaddaya think?
