There's a better chance of getting hit by lightning than there is of getting caught. A boat with 30 bass has to be caught in RI waters by their DEM, or it has to be seen crossing into Mass waters by our EPOs with a load of fish. Once they're in Mass waters on an open day, they're untouchable. |

RI angler fishing Mass waters. A great fisherman who has won the Schaefer Cup. He had not had a 50# in nine years and then got 4 in one morning.

Good for him.
Good for his family.
Bad for the fishery.
Bad for us.
Bad for the MA commercials.
Probably bad for BI. Taxes are high in Massachusetts.
So it goes.

ya think? I don't understand the logic in this ruling. They can fish in our season but we can't sell into there's? MA DMF is F'ed up.
If you saw how much RI bunker is dumped into Gay Head waters you would be amazed...truck loads....every comm day. |

He may be "yankin" because he thinks its funny and likes to play with some of us a little (some of us have known and liked Greg for a while) but he has also over time been right on the money with a lot of "rumors" emanating from that part of the state. The lack of comeback is probably just that he posts a handful of times a month at Oh Dark Thirty and then goes of too work - not in front of a computer all day  . Seriously though, Greg is real good people (when he is not being cranky    ). |

Yeah I'm still around, but you wouldn't see me weighing in any large. First I don't have a commercial license, I've never felt I wanted to contribute to the decline of the fishery. I keep my fair share of the small keepers for the grille throughout the season, but the larger breeders I release. The exception might be if it were state record size, that old girl probably isn't breeding and that's a fish I think everyone keeps.
I don't post much anymore, I don't have the free time I used to and what's the point; some things just don't ever change. |

Hi Bob 
I can coroborate however you spell that, that Bob does indeed release the breaders and he is alive, last time we fished he pulls up to a spot and bangs a 30 pounder first cast while I get bluefished 
Thanks again for that trip Bob, I hope you had a good vacation fishing with your brother in law.
Let's go again sometime |

Hi Bob
Good to see ya around, glad to hear you're still above ground  |
"There is no royal road to this heavy surf-fishing. With all the appliances for comfort experience can suggest, there is a certain amount of hard work to be done and exposure to be bourne as a part of the price of success." From "Striped Bass," Scribner's Magazine, 1881.

Mass Quota for 2008?
Just found this info about the 2007 Mass comm. fishing for stripers on the ASMFC site:
Massachusetts 34” min.
Hook & line only
998,063 lb. Quota
7.12 until quota reached
5 fish on Sun, 30 fish/day Tues-Thurs
What is the 2008 quota?
Thanks,
Woody
