striped bass forever, again

[piemma]

I don't know. Maybe it's me, but Bryan and I caught large fish, small fish, in-between fish all season last year and the year before. Different places last year than the year before because the bait wasn't where it was the year before. But we caught schoolies, 15 to 20# ers, 30 lbers.
I agree on the bait thing though. If the %@#*&^% pogie boats would stop killing the Stripers main food there would be a healthier Bass population.
Don't think the Menahen Trawlers make a dent in the adult population?
Then ask youself one question. How come there are millions and millions of baby bunker and very few adults schools?

I would join a group dedicated to restoring the forage fish stocks.

If you want to catch smaller fish try the tube and worm in close to the rocks, or look in the CT River right now.

Don't forget big fish eat little fish, so don't expect to find lots of little fish in the same area that you're catching the big ones. Big striped bass do eat little striped bass.
