Can't wait to see what kind of action if any the ASMFC will take.

It's like a doughnut when you start eating all meat from the edges then all you're left with is a hole.

Bass are getting harder to find on the edge of the range and fishing for them is now are less consistent in the middle part of their range MA,RI CT. Fish the surf without the electronics of a WWII destroyer and you'll see it.

Some say that there's a fine line between a Surfcaster and some idiot just standing on the beach.

Bill Wetzel posted that this is the worst June he has ever experienced in Montauk. That is a lot of Montauk years and hard fishing.

dunno if that's true..... I'm a boat guy (albeit I Suck), but Piemma and clammer are both boat guys that forgot more than I will ever know. (I'm pretty sure Mike was actually born on the bay while his mother was fighting a fish) They aren't seeing any great fishing that you speak of. Some boats in SOME regions sure, but it's not the overall trend by any means.

I know this is from last year and it's one guys' blog on it but read it anyway
worth the time

The United States Constitution does not exist to grant you rights; those rights are inherent within you. Rather it exists to frame a limited government so that those natural rights can be exercised freely.

1984 was a warning, not a guidebook!

It's time more people spoke up with the truth. Every time we let a leftist lie go uncorrected, the commies get stronger.

Their history is to be reactive, rather than pro-active.

Catch reductions were on the table 3 years ago---until the YOY numbers came out in the fall. Tabled. All was well again.

For "maximum sustainable yield" 3 bad years in a row should trigger catch reductions.You can't sustain what ain't sustaining themselves naturally.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.
