Saltheart I beg to differ about the people catching and keeping 40 stripers, and then not selling them. When I went out with Gary Corsetti there were at least 10-15 other boats out there with us. Not one of those boats caught 1/20th the amount of fish we caught. Also every fish we caught was a commercial keeper except maybe 2. Most people out there on boats don't catch near the amount of quality fish that commercial guys catch. The only exception is a person who was a former commercial and is a recreational or charter guy. The guys with boats either catch alot of mid or small sized fish, or tons of schoolies, or a couple of fish. Read all the reports from the people on this site, see how many are catching 40+ 36" fish in a trip. The commercial rod and reel guys are not hurting the striped bass any more than the recs are. The guys that are killing the stripers are the draggers, and the guys down south. I don't begrudge these rod and reel commercials one bit.
