    Comment by 'george' in article 'Electric Outboard Motors for Saltwater Fishing'

    This article is based on what’s available. And it is fluff. But the fact remains that it’s just a matter of time. As an EV owner, i will never go back to a combustion engine. It’s been 30 years since I’ve had this much fun driving. Speed handling, braking, safety no gas stations, and on an...

    Proof The System Is Broken - We killed 3x the fluke we took home

    They make the rules. Therefore they are 100% to blame. NO blame can be on the angler who follows those rules.

    Proof The System Is Broken - We killed 3x the fluke we took home

    I never said this is one dimensional. And when it comes to fluke, everyone wants fish to take home. This isn’t striped bass. Let’s get back to the real issue. We’re killing more fish as bycatch than we bring home to eat. Just last week we tossed back a 3-pound floater thanks to bad regulations...

    Proof The System Is Broken - We killed 3x the fluke we took home

    How could we possibly be on the same page when their is such a variety of tactics.. What's good for deep water fluking is not as so good for the inshore guy. Or the surf guy, or the fly fisherman and on an on. We need to send a clear message to our politicians that we should have the same...

    Proof The System Is Broken - We killed 3x the fluke we took home

    Interesting take. I'm thinking my numbers are more accurate than anything they can every come up with. Are there certain assumptions? Yes. But considering the reports I read from a group of over 140 anglers that fish that region about what happened that day, we were pretty average. There were...

    It's based on an old nmfs study.

    Proof The System Is Broken - We killed 3x the fluke we took home

    Here's a question for you guys . . . Why are we targeting the older fish when a female over 25 inches produces 4-million eggs while smaller fish produce between 250-500k? Don't we save the larger striped bass because of their reproductive abundance at older ages? Yet commercially they're taken...

    Post your 2019-2025 Fluke Pix & Trip Reports Here!

    I’m Matt, you’re reading me right. A lower size limit reduces discard mortality because anglers reach a take-home bag with fewer handled fish. Fewer shorts in the net means fewer fish stressed, gut-hooked, or dying later. “Just shorten the season” only tackles effort. Managers care about total...

    Now I'm hungry! Back to the trip on Saturday. My hand is still cramping from all of the 2-3 pound fish we had to release. I know you hear the bitching and complaining about the regs all of the time, both here and all over the web. I decided to break down this trip and multiply our results to...

    Sea Bass Regulations for 26/27: your comments are needed by MAFMC by Wed!

    I made a few calls on this yesterday and as I mentioned, there is a chance we can get this done. Hopefully this can be dome without a lot of effort. Sea Bass became part of the esuriency program in 2020 and it's proven to be broken. More on this as it comes available.

    Don't take it the wrong way, I'm asking if you will get onboard an effort to change things? I am tlaking myself into getting involved here . . . anyhow check out this Video I had AI do on this. It's totally unbiased but coming from my questioning.

    @OVERBORED Would you join in the effort? I pushed the bunker boats out of New York. Not single handedly, but almost. It was the relationships I built. I am currently the Weakfish Advisor to the ASMFC and you would be hard pressed to find anyone with more creds than I.

    Science and numbers have little to do with what we're dealing with. There are plenty of fish to be had right now. I know I'd be happy with a 15-inch fish. Problem is not only equivalents it's also "historical landings" Which in my view should have zero to do with any recreational fishery...

    We have no one. There are people out there will do the job but they can't do it on their own. It's time we got one of the social influencers on board and then somehow unite all of the great fishing media we have available. These kids grew up on tons of striped bass and that's really all they do...
