[Fun King]

The link posted by Mr Dakota is interesting. It shows that blues were booming in the 80's, kind of how I remember it. I used to catch so many that I stopped going on the party boats, I didn't want to deal with a hundred pounds of bluefish. Every fish was gaffed. The link also shows that in the 80's stripers were almost non-existent, also how I remember it. Strict regulations, like one fish over 36", led to the recovery of stripers.
