So we can’t count our chickens quite yet. There is a nice number of young stripers out there growing toward spawning size, but we’re going to need at least one more year class like it, if not larger, to really solidify the foundation of the stock and help keep robust the numbers of fish roaming our waters. We’re still ahead of where we were in the 1980s, since the total existing stock has not sunk to the depths of the collapse early that decade.
