Quote: Flaptail, In Joshua Atkins Nickerson's book "As I remember it" agbout growing up in Chatham at the turn of the century, he mentioned how his father and uncle would spear bass through the ice by drawing them up to the hole with lanterns in Pleasant Bay. On the Parker River up by Plum Island they would chop holes across the ice drop nets in and poison the river to catch bass for market in the winter.End quote.
I have not read the book, however I know a famely that did the same things in the early 1900. (Got em through the ice!)
I will let the dust settle for a while. ( A tid bit I found.)
Some or all of you may have seen this before. I just found it!

For the past 10 years I noticed a growing population of Striped Bass in the fresh/brackish waters of the Metro Boston area. During this time the fish ladders are not functioning or poorly designed for the River Herring. Well, how will the Herring spawn? They let the Herring pile into the boat lockes, close it, and open the other side to the fresh allowing the Herring to swim and spawn up river. Along with the Herring are Bass of varied size. It's nice to fish in an area were you have a shot at LMB, SMB, and Striped Bass all in one outing. I have not witnessed a spawn yet around these river ways but I am sure it is possible.
