That nuber 43%, is high. I least that still leaves 57% of us who would favor a chance at larger fish. This figure seems to change somewhat based on the group of anglers you ask.

I would favor 1 @ 36" coastwide. Better yet just a tag that would permit 4 or 5 per year over 36". Let them eat some other fish. I guess Im just a selfish elitist striper fisherman. I did keep 3 this year, one of which was deep hooked from an eel, so Im not a complete C&R fannatic. Unfortunatly I fear anglers, states, and all the various interests involved will never be able come to a consensus an this issue.


After reading Crash's post above (posting at same time) I like his suggestions better.
