Yes that is one good result. The whole thing has become such a zoo I barely even participate anymore. Fishing for fun is so much more enjoyable.

any "floating islands" of boats chasing schools of bass around anymore??? (like the ones off Chatham a few years back.....?)

I was in the middle of a stampede a few years ago- it was hilarious and tragic at the same time. talk about a zoo

Yes usually PTown and Lower Cape Cod Bay are almost as bad a certain times. It is one of the reason I sold my boat just wasn't fun anymore. I would rather grab a few from shore or my tin boat in shallow if I am lucky. Way more satisfying.

You guys just named a bunch of reasons Stripers should be a gamefish like Snook and Tarpon. No commercial season anywhere.

It's not so much that I have a problem with commercial. It's the money grab and the abuse it perpetuates.

No boat, back in the suds.

My favorite statement is " If I don't cash in on it, someone else might do it "
i'll leave it at that. If you have so little ethics in life to think in those terms then nothing we say will make any difference

Here Here- I'm with you guys.
I have a story that shaped my opinion during the 'last' moratorium, but no time to relate now, maybe later......
