It is illegal to target striped bass in federal water, includes catch and release.....
Nowhere on the Striper coast is there such total disregard of the EEZ as in Virginia / North Carolina. I dont think people have any idea the damage being done by the poaching down south. The Charter Boats down there break the law every single day and brag about it. It is a shame. The entire biomass is concentrated down there in different schools, guys are running well beyond three miles, most 2 trips a day. If you guys just see the fish that are caught illegally and come in every day...
Report from VA beach last sat:
[ edited by John R - one can easily believe that list is people actually poaching where we have no proof if it is or not - I'll add some comments later in this thread]
These were poached in one day... This is just from a handfull of boats at the VA fishing center. A small percentage that even report their catch...
Ill say it agian, more big fish down there are killed in the winter than the Northeast in a decade, easy...
Guess we keep Blaming the Mass Com Guys ;-)
