I can't argue with the decline in winning weights. And I have voted by not attending the Derby for a few years now. While it pains me to not have a shot at albies, it just got to like I didn't have a chance at a striped bass, of any size.
But..... my assessment of the stock from the past two years fishing locally is quite good. PB last year on Columbus weekend, less than 50 yards from shore. Solid 42", +35# fish tonight at 5pm from the rocks, on a pencil, and not in a blitz.... We have a great fishery locally, which I have been able to share with a number of members this year on my boat. Multi species in shore. Blondterror was most recent visitor. So maybe it is more of a geographic shift. If the bait is in, the fish are in.
