STRIPED BASS REGULATIONS 2015

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL MY FISHING FRIENDS OUT THERE. THE 2015 STRIPED BASS REGULATIONS ARE NOT SET IN STONE JUST YET. THE GOVERNMENT HAS TO DECIDE WHAT THEY WANT TO DO AND THEN THE STATE MAKES THE FINAL REGULATIONS. WE CAN'T FISH FOR STRIPED BASS IN FEDERAL WATERS BUT THE FEDS MUST COME UP WITH THEIR NUMBER FIRST. THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT SIZE LIMITS BEING DISCUSSED AS WELL AS A SLOT LIMIT AGAIN WITH ANOTHER LARGER KEEPER STRIPER. HOPEFULLY IT WILL STILL BE A TWO FISH LIMIT WHICH WE ARE ALL USED TO. AND WE'LL HAVE TO SEE AFTER THE NEW REGS COME OUT IF THE STRIPED BASS BONUS PROGRAM IS STILL IN PLACE. IF SO, YOU CAN GET A STRIPED BASS BONUS TAG AND HOPEFULLY GO HOME WITH THREE STRIPERS IN THE COOLER! I'LL KEEP YOU INFORMED ON ALL OF THE ABOVE.

THE JUST ONE MORE ENDED LAST SEASON ON A HIGH NOTE. THE LAST 5 STRIPED BASS TRIPS WERE FULL LIMITS WITH FISH UP TO 34". MOSTLY CAUGHT TROLLING BUT SOME JIGGING AND CASTING AS WELL. WE ALSO HAD SOME GOOD BLACKFISH TRIPS ENDING RIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS. LOTS OF FISH, NO WHOPPERS BUT UP TO 5 LBS. PLENTY OF FISH JUST UNDER THE 15" LIMIT WERE THROWN BACK.

AS FAR AS CHARTERS GO.... SOME SATURDAYS AND SUNDAYS ARE ALREADY BOOKED  FOR THIS UPCOMING BASS SEASON THIS MAY AND JUNE. MIGHT BE TIME TO TALK TO YOUR CREW AND GET YOUR DATE LOCKED IN. IT IS ALMOST FEBRUARY ALREADY AND IT WILL BE HERE BEFORE YOU KNOW IT. THANKYOU.
