squeteague - what's your opinion on this fishery?

[Bill L]

What fishery?? There is none.............

My thought exactly. Never got one, but have heard the tales of filling the boat with them in the 70's. The current bag limits are insane

[Clammer]

Those were the days //

on the bottom with bait
Drift a float & bait
3/8 bucktail
tube & worm
Pogies
herring
accident

it was not uncommon when fishing a pod of fish under 5LBs to have a two man team /catch 100 a day // as they got larger they became more scarce/ finally catching the XL pretty much by mistake / the largest I ever caught ,was over 14#,s
