Of course, they were all 12" long or so...

His initials were DP

I don't count. My log entries, when I bothered to keep one, were "one fish", "a handful", "several", "decent number of fish", or "blitz-like numbers". The last year that I could basically go fishing any time I wanted, 2006, I probably took over 500 fish but that included some fish-every-cast 6 hour Canal tides in October.

I also don't carry a hand scale, I don't measure fish I want to release, and I don't measure clear keeper fish I keep. I only measure the close ones when I'm looking for a meal.

Crafty angler- It was Dave Pickering. He gets at least a 1000 stripers every season and alot of them are small.

In past years I would lose count however this year I've kept a count that are logged onto the calendar.
DP has given me tips that resulted in my biggest tally count YTD including large keepers.
To bad for me that I don't record the stunkings so that I don't repeat in the future. Well, maybe now I will.
