The guy Urban is fishing backwaters whatever that means, and catching and releasing stripers. He is enjoying himself and releasing his catch so whats the big deal?

I do keep a few stripers a year to eat and everyone is 28" no bigger or smaller.

Can you answer this question the both of you? How long have you been fishing and in particular Striped Bass fishing?

Whatever that means ???

The problem is you are telling people something is legal when its not. What they choose to do with the correct info is up to them but spreading bad info is irresponsible as a know-it-all. Your type annoys me terribly. You know you were wrong, it was proven. But you will never admit it and will even try to back track to make it look like you were right. I've been living and fishing in ocean county nj for 25 years. Not that I need to tell you anything about myself.
