I'd wager the author of the video isn't an advocate for their actions.

That just made me sick to my stomach, I can't believe that is aloud

BassDawg · 01-10-2008, 07:11 PM

That is the most disgusting display of the

RAPING of our RESOURCE/FISHERY that i've ever witnessed.

These are the things that gives PETA and the rest of the tree-hugging universe ALL the ammunition that they need.

I think I'll go PUKE, now! How can those schlubs sleep at night?

That makes me sick, its just wrong , somebody needs to cut all those nets.

JohnR · 01-10-2008, 08:26 PM

I'm merging this with the other thread on this subject.

Looks like we have a new video to show on Truck Seining instead of the one on Long Island ten years ago. Painful to watch, eh?

UserRemoved1 · 01-10-2008, 08:29 PM

Sure is John. That was yesterday too. What's striper a pound down there right now. That guys truck ain't big nuff to hold that many fish either.

basswipe · 01-10-2008, 09:22 PM

MY GOD!!!

That simply is horrifying.

Comparing us to that is silly.None of us individually or as a whole(meaning sb.com members) will ever kill that many fish in a lifetime,especially that many undersized fish.

Nebe · 01-10-2008, 07:34 PM

yeah, thats a bummer to watch, but...add up all the members here and add up the catches in a night from the members who were out fishing and its about the same as that haul. Who is worse??

The stripers belong to everyone not just recreational anglers.

Raider Ronnie · 01-10-2008, 07:51 PM

Draggers do worse in our waters east of Chatham in the fall.

And then get shoveled over the side in a lot of cases to rot b/c the season is closed.

Nobody likes seeing sausage made, but right now it is legal... change the system, change the tactics.....

Slipknot · 01-11-2008, 08:47 AM

Can I do that to the seals on the Cape?

While that may be true from a Catch perspective,

our release ratio is quite another factor and a huge part of NE surfcasting.

Also, the majority of our NE kill is NOT dinks. There was a SIGNIFICANT number of shoolies in that haul. A DISGUSTING number of teeny fish that will never become Big Gurls.

I've no problem with the commershes taking their allotted amount,

but that sheeeet cain't be legal, so many rats, huh Nebe!??

"Who is worse??"

Are you kidding me???
Dude, you definately like to stir the pot.

Couldn't agree more.

Typical "shock" video where everyone gets all up in arms without ever considering the big picture, or better yet, the facts.

zimmy · 01-11-2008, 10:03 AM

I can't see the video on this computer and I am sure it would disgust me... However, I also agree that the commercial harvest pails in comparison to the rec. harvest in terms of #'s of stripers.

In 1999 the rec harvest was 6000 metric tons and the commercial harvest 3000 metric tons. In 2005 the rec harvest was 11,900 metric tons and the commercial harvest was still 3000 metric tons.

Probably comparable to a good day on upper Narragansett Bay this past June when the menhaden blitz was going on.
The seiners have a quota - when they fill it it's over for them. I used to get upset over this but not anymore.

zacs · 01-11-2008, 10:30 AM

are all of the guys freaking out opposed to all commercial fishing?

This doesn't bother me at all. very slow , very inefficient.

I would wager that the take in this three day season is a drop in the bucket compared to the Mass. comm season.

And neither of those are even on the same chart if you start comparing to what mid-water trawlers are doing to other species.

But I guess only us rec.'s are allowed to eat striped bass....

DZ-

I was thinking the same thing when I saw the video - probably similar kills when the pogies have been so concentrated in our own Bay the past couple years.

Thank you.

and to reply to bassdawg, If i had my way we would only be allowed to keep schoolies and fish over 40 lbs..

schoolies are good because there are more males in the bunch.
over 40 is good because they have had dozens of opportunities to spawn.

teaser · 01-10-2008, 11:37 PM

Yeah ... I call those guys fishermen all right, and a few more names that shouldn't be said here because it's a family oriented site.

that can't be legal, even during the comercial season.

Flaptail · 01-11-2008, 07:02 AM

Though it may seem carnage and a blow to the Striped Bass population, in three days these guys could never ever come close to the carnage imposed on bass by the recreational sector of the striped bass fishery along the easterb seaboard.

For example, one only had to sit by the Cape Cod Canal's banks during herring season to see and count all the fish going across Rt. 6 or into trunks and truck bed coolers. Then multiply that by the several thousand miles of Atlantic coastline and millions of fisherman.

Though abhorant, the numbers in this video don't come close.
