I don't get everyone's issue with the striped bass. The stock is well over the SSB target, and well over the SSB threshold.
-- The stock is not going to go back to the stock of the 80's.
-- The stock of the 80's was not overfished. The problems arose from anthropogenic effects where they spawned. The water quality did not let the eggs hatch.
-- The issue now is not a matter of fish, it is a matter of bait. There is not enough bait for the fish to eat.
