While they very well might be spawning in local waters, I don't think it is far-fetched to think yearlings may have travled up from points south this winter. The waters never got that cold, why wouldn't they swim up here? While I for one compeltely believe they are spawning in way more places than we have documented, do you really want your local water-way to be named an official spawning ground? If I am not pistaken, you can not target stripers in certain stretches of the known spawning rivers in the spring.
