Current Striped Bass regs by state

John, it appears that NY is staying with the status quo--a one fish bag, 28" minimum size, with a "party/charter boat" exception that allows fares to keep 2 fish at 28" or better. CCA-NY and a lot of the clubs wanted higher minimums and elimination of the charter exception, and it looks like we're not getting it. Personally, I support the old 36" limit, but I could live with 34".

I would like to see the MV Derby go back to their old 38" minimum--no one is going to win anything with a 32" bass, unless they are fishing somewhere sheltered during a full gale that shuts the rest of the Island down.
