Do the math.
That means about 750,000 lbs. With the average fish there about 15# (though there were a lot more bigger than normal fish mixed in), that's approx 50,000 bass from one mass....Sick.
That's why it slowed down. they were decimated.
The other 25% prob from Block..........
Worst comm season I can remember having from shore in the 17 yrs I've had a comm license........
Let me see if I understand this, you are saying that75% of the qouta came from Chatham and the rest of the million pounds came from Block Island area. Is this correct.

That's a lot of fish.
