We didn't keep one striper last year. I don't think we ever kept more than 3 on the boat in a day for 20 years. So it won't impact me a bit except maybe there will be more big ones to release in coming years.
Destroyer...I caught one whiting last year!
Used to fish the Casino pier in the 70's-80's I know what you are talking about.
And night party boats along the beach. That is gone.
BUT, I never caught one striper in the 70's and 80s'. Now I can catch a dozen throwbacks a night on my dock.
