Some good fish South..
A good amount of 50LB class fish were caught in Delaware Bay the Last two weeks, more than previous years... We Landed this 53.9lber in a tourney this past week.... Water was well into the 60's. Thursday felt like summer....

Nice Fish! Road trip!!!

Does your incessant whining make you feel better? How about you just shut the hell up and suck it up? It's a fishing forum , so please just stop.

The bunker bite is totally on down in the Delaware Bay....
Unlike past years where we moved a boat down there for the fall we are keeping both of them up here in Margate and just "jumping on" with a few friends... but they have been mugging them up.
This is a pic of a friend and family with a 58.29#....54" length, 32" girth. The angler is the young lady on the far right...13 years old, and the new Junior World Record Holder if all goes right !
But as happy as she is, I think it's Dad that is smiling the most!

Nice report, Ken. I'm jealous. Hey, if I was down there, I would be out fishing for them, with pogies, and keeping some. But that is me. And I am now on the north shore of Boston with no fish around......  |

While I feel Ken posts pics here to antagonize,he always has an audience to lead with their chin.Sheeple like woody,who most likely eat crap every day that they can't even pronounce are ripe for the picking.
Well done Ken, never got a chance to congratulate you at the Cup party but you and your team put a whuppin on the field.Woody might serve the stripers and those who illegally abuse the right granted to fish them if he took a road trip to Rudee Inlet and saw the redneck carnage that goes on over the fence.

How can anybody fish for decades and have a PB of 42"?
I hope you teach better than you learn.
Teachers must do well to fish with ZB's.
Larry tried to explain it was not a kill only tournament and provided information stating such at your request.You seemed unimpressed by his efforts, yet still admit you fish tournaments with your club.Are these tournaments strictly C&R?If not,how does your conscience justify participation?How do you justify fishing eels when they are in a state of decline?
Keep in mind I am not criticizing any angler who is conservation minded unless they are hypocrites.I will also add that picking a scab on the internet will never accomplish anything besides a well worn debate.This passion you have for bass would serve them better at a regional level.Thank You.

Not a hardcore angler SD. I've been fising my whole life, but not as a psycho. Just an enthusiast. About 3 years ago I got into surf casting for bass. Sorry if my PB doesn't match someone else's, but it's still my best, and I'm not ashamed of that. Oh, it was a 45" fish I took that same morning as the 42" you guys have glommed onto. And the tourneys I have fished are just club tourneys like the MS challenge. I do it to support a good cause, and for the social aspects of it, not to kill fish and be a cool guy. And as I said, it is on rare, very rare, occasions that I fish eels. Why? Because I dont' fish to catch, I fish for the satisfaction of being out there in the surf. Catching is a bonus.
As for my profession and the reel I fish, that's silly. I work hard and do extra to buy the things I enjoy. |

You really think people that only post here to show pictures of themselves and their friends holding big fish they caught on bait are releasing them? |

I really don't think it makes a difference if these fish were caught on bait or a plugs, boat or surf, regardless it was their last meal. In return some happy guys are eating some good striped bass with their families! |

Yeah, the bait part of my comment was the main point. |

They were all released into coolers, but hey at least they were caught recreationally. There were dozens of 50's caught in the last two weeks, the boys down there are all enjoying a banner year, they are not complaining that the fishery is dead, for them its been getting better the last few years... |

The Delaware Bay fishery really seems to be in good shape. I'm convinced the fall D-Bay fish are the Delaware River spawning stock, which doesn't seem to have nearly the amount of problems with disease and lack of spawning success that the Chesapeake fishery does, which is remarkable when you see what those fish have to swim past in order to reproduce. |

Sorry bud.. That fish was worth over 6K.. If I have a choice over killing a 50LB fish which is near the end of her life expectancy range anyway or 6k, Thats a no Brainer.. I let way more fish go than I catch..
http://www.fishasa.com/tournaments/u...10_results.htm
And Yes I plan on killing more for this one for a shot at 100K plus

Beats bitchin about those that catch em over the winter... Its looking to be a warm winter this year, alot of fish down south will be inside three miles well into 2011...

How big do you think these fish get? How many fish were recorded over 54" inches?? Al McReynolds fish was just that 54"... Just like humans, they reach a certain age and die... We all are aware of the class of fish that are prime spawners.. it Aint 50+lb fish... Besides, If I let it go it Gives JohnnyD a long shot in catching it one day, (Same as winning the lottery), and we dont want that! :-))) |

Each fisherman is entitled to their opinion. If cowhunter catches monsters, and decides to keep them that is his choice, and right.
How can someone be irresponsible when they are abiding by the rules in place ? If anything, try to change the rules, IMHO. |

5 years from now, I don't think as many guys will be giving pats on the back to the cow killers. We are on a downward trend and until everyone wakes up, it's only going to get worse
