Re: Where the bay stripers went last year! Must read!!
Capt Sal I agree i use also use the same hooks as soon as I started using them 99% of the fish were all hooked above their gills. Not hard to take out and back in the water in less than one minute! there will alsways be fish that get gut hooked by the fishermen that just let the fish inhale the bait. I was taught how to fish by my father doing fresh water trout fihing in NJ waters. He alsways told me anyone can catch a fish when then gut hook them but the real fishermean had the perfict hook up where they were hooked in the mouth. I STILL HOLD THIS TO BE TRUE! But then again not all on the party boats fish that much to become a good fisherman. I put 98% of the fish I catch back in the water. So soon it will be a law to put them all back or not fish at all! let the comerical guys keep all they want then soon they will be all out of service, like what they have done with ever thing in the ocean.
