So all you guys hammering the stripers day in and out are the cause for the slower striper seasons as of late.
This is pure fact. You can't blame the commercial fishery on this at all.
Fish over 45lbs eggs start to lose viability. By the time a striper is pushing 50lbs their eggs in most, are not viable.
So throwing back 50lb fish really does nothing.

Is this 100% valid info? Like culling out the old bucks?
I dont catch 50s so it's a moot point in my case lol
