I just cannot do it anymore. 50 years of striper fishing and I think I'm done. There is no sport in it anymore. |
I'm sure that you remember what happened the last time there was an insane run of large fish in a small area, and not much else going on along the rest of the coast. 
Knowing that I'm very likely to have caught my last striped bass ever doesn't make it any easier to watch from afar. I have a deep reverence for that fish. |

Joe, the upper Bay is full of Blues from 5 to 12#. I know you are of the "clammer school" when it comes to Blues but they do pull like crazy.
