Re: Who has ever landed a 50 Pound Striper in Raritan Bay?
best fish I had in the bay was low forties.
Have had 2 legit over 50 oceanside a 52 and a 54, and a 54 in VA
Have had three guys on my boat catch fish over 50
few high forties to go along with those
ALL weighed on 2 different digital scales.
I do think many bigger fish are lost due to guys not having equipment big enough to handle larger fish.
But equipment size is a tough call because you dont want to be fishing a broom stick when catching all the 25-35 pounders, as it takes the fun out of it.
as far as Over estimating fish , I think that happens more often than not. cant understand why many guys dont carry a scale so they know what they actually caught.
