Only a couple bumps and a lost swimmer last night... Got down there and I put on a just out of the box Olive & Silver Mombo Minnow on the light rod 'cause I heard some bass whacking herring that were all over the place. In my rush to get out there I though "To heck with a leader, 12# test'll do". Well on the third cast, WHAMMO, line parted on a certain keeper fish... Fishpart, did you see a Mambo anywhere ;D ? Twas mine.... Just one bump in the next 1.5 hours... Need the live stuff...
The idea of getting the most out of the fish is a good one but maybe 20% of the beach filleters use that as motivation for it. The rest just want to NOT clean it at home... Besides, you can still get fined of you "mutilate" a striped bass before it reaches it's final destination. I believe the official terminology is that the fish is supposed to be "transported intact" less draining the blood.
