You are right- man tends not to learn from history so he keeps making the same mistakes and wonders why he gets the same results. Ron

Oh, I remember it so well.
You young guys have no idea. You could fish for 3 weeks every night and never touch a striper. Bluefish were all you caught.

Yup. That's what it was like in '90; never even bothered to try fishing for stripers then; only caught 'em as a by catch. Sure used to catch plenty of blues back then. Wouldn't mind picking up a few more now, actually; they've been down the last few years too.

Don't be so hard on yourself.
There are a lot of other factors to take into account such as seals ,water conditions, migration changes and disease.

Very good That is why the vast majority here think 1@28 is such a fairly pathetic step. 1@28 for some and a bs amalgam of 2 fish for the pro boats is contemptible. You, et al., keep beating the horse about guys here only caring about the charter boats. That is a red herring. The whole management effort is fatally flawed and the special intere$t exemption is a kick in the junk.
