Northeast Striped Bass limits for 2015

[SkunkBoat]

I can live with the new nj striper limit. Now the fluke size limit is a different story...

I would be fairly happy with the one fish limit here in virginia aslong as they would let us fish beyond the 3 mile line (demarcation line). Our Rockbass pattern has changed big time! We havent had a decent rockfish season in about 4 years. Our fish are feeding on baits 10 to 15 miles offshore. Hardly any fish work inside the 3 mile line.....our rockbass seasons have very odd for a while now.

Personally, I love catching Stripers, but I don't care for their taste all that much, so I return them to the sea again to live. That's one of the reasons I spend so much time in the Hackensack River. It's a breeding ground, and so there are lots of shorts. Fun to catch, but still easy to return to the water without harming them. On a good day I'll catch and release 15-25 fish.
Now Fluke, on the other hand, are a different subject. If they're legal, they're in my freezer by the end of the day.

I have been rock fishing for a long time, I used to run charter boats for a living. All of that is a ucking joke. They need to step up and do something about omega. One fish a day not worth the fuel to go besides the amount of fish at 40 miles is offfff the hook. No shortage of fish ,they just don't come up on the beach. Its simple no bait NO FISH, then add the low oxygen levels. But again Gov't with all its wisdom and knowledge at work.

NJ kicked them out of the 3 mile limit, thats why we can catch 30 pound stripers right outside the inlets feeding on square miles of bunker. Unfortunately, they still show up in Fed water sucking up a couple hundred million pounds a year
