    Hate to be one of those “me first” millennial types but after wearing the green for 32 years and putting up with federal civil service for 35, the heck with all you youngsters.

    Ahh. Sorry. I did see that, recalling the old people get it free. (Like me !)

    The slot was in effect last year, not just this year. How many illegal fish did these two "winners" take last year as well?

    Thanks, good to see that. I wonder if I could simply add the unused, boiled, colored tapioca pearls to my trail mix...

    Too busy here killing off those elderly nursing home patients. If Princess Andie can hold off screaming at poor legislator Kim maybe he will call our DEC. I never did try a tube and worm with live sandworms, just Gulp ones, and quickly switched back to jigging Gulp on bucktails.

    In my part of the south shore bay sea bass are just a nuisance since they are rarely of legal size. I stopped fishing for blackfish for the same reason and instead start surfcasting for stripers and blues once my tootsies get a bit too cold in the yak and the winds pick up. Drop the size...

    Yeah, I heard that too and was hoping he had just "mispoke." (Or that he really meant that you can use tapioca both north and south of the GW...) There was another really major word miscue, I have even forgotten what it was, since I thought it was obvious to listeners that one would catch it...

    Since Fat Cow and Gulp are synthetics not so sure about those. Except for when I surfcast in the fall (and don't use bait of any sort) I will not have to worry about striper by-catch. Perhaps when I liveline but I usually only do that backbay off the yak and the waters are WARM. Personally...

    Did I miss the use of Berkley Gulp or pork rind on a jig ? I did hear that if one uses (I don't) squid or a spearing on a j-hook jig and catches a slot striper that the reg will probably require the striper be released.

    I guess its because I usually kayak and thus usually alone so only the keepers get a photo and that's in my driveway !

    You can catch it, just have to release it (lol) if I get my druthers. Most of my surfcasting brethren will want the slot. (Wrong thread but I would like to see a slot and smaller bag for fluke)

    "NJ won't have to go to a slot " What is so terrible about a slot ? Preserves the female breeders and the filets fit on a cutting board ! For the "look at me" crowd there is always a quick photo. But wasn't there already "public input?" I know I submitted my preference a month or two...

    Do the states still have until November 30 to submit an alternative conservation equivalency ?

    although not pet owners presently, from time to time we watch our friends now 6 year old morkie mix and just returned him after he was with us three weeks while our friend had medical stuff going on. although we have had to put dogs down, I can not imagine what this family is going through...

    Idk. I haven’t caught a porgy in matzohpizza since the early 80s

    both very rare in my neck of the woods. Would love to think porgies are back around here. Nearer to the bridges maybe. I was wondering if it was blowfish or runt size cocktails.
