    I drove down to Jones Beach for a drive and to look where they were fishing for fluke.I'm going out tomorrow. Saw a bunch of boats concentrated right off the Construction dock near the Coast Guard Station. It was outgoing tide . At least they're still in the bay.

    ASMFC Striped Bass Draft Addendum III - Plain English Summary

    When was the last time you saw the DEC stop a moving boat to search it ? I've been out there over 50 years and have never seen a moving boat get stopped. They putt putt around going from boat to boat. Poachers know that.

    ASMFC Striped Bass Draft Addendum III - Plain English Summary

    Maryland did little to protect the bunker and I don't trust them with the Striped Bass. NY protected the Bunker and the Hudson Striped Bass . I wish State Waters went out 12 miles instead of 3, it would discourage the North Carolina fleet sailing up North .Ban all nets and only allow Fish...

    Amazing how the Amish are taking over Upstate NY!

    No excuse why she hit that buggy . You don't run into a buggy on an open road like that unless there was something wrong with you. The Amish where I am have to travel along winding tree lined hilly roads . People in rural areas drive way too fast and just like that I have a bunch of cars behind...

    If you only net one fish...

    Pequa, did you ever consider getting stabilizers for your Kayak so you didn't have to worry about tipping over ? It would probably be more enjoyable out there. I had a Kayak and it was always a balancing act. I could swear some guys purposely sped up next to me in big boats hoping I'd tip over...
