John and Flap are right on point. Get rid of the Pogy boats and you will not believe how many 40 pound bass there will be. It's all a function of forage. Give them more high protein food and they get bigger and there will be more of them.

Someone called me yesterday and said they think that Stripers are on the decline again. It's simply untrue. They location of the fish (at least in RI) has changed. We had more 30 pound fish in Upper Narr Bay last year than in the last 20 years. The reason? The Pogy boats didn't get all of the Bunker so the Bass stayed in the Upper Bay where the FOOD was!!
Real simple when you think about it. The Bass go where the best and most abundant food is....just like any other wild animal.

No boat, back in the suds.
