STRIPERS

[berkley]

HEY GUYS, I PLAN ON COMING DOWN TOMORROW EARLY TO DO SOME CATTIN' AND RELAXIN'. THE GUY COMING WITH ME ASKED IF IT WAS LEGAL TO KEEP A STRIPER NOW. I TOLD HIM THE STRIPER SEASONS/ REGULATIONS WERE TOO TRICKY FOR ME TO REMEMBER. CAN ANYONE TELL ME? I DON'T NEED TO KNOW ABOUT ANY OTHER DATES BESIDES TOMORRROW AND THE SIZE AND QUANTITY. THANKS VERY MUCH. OH, IS BAIT STILL EASY TO COME BY AT DEEP BOTTOM AS IT NORMALLY IS THIS TIME OF YEAR? THANKS AGAIN VERY MUCH, BERKLEY

2 per person 18-28 inches, or 2 per person 1 between 18-28 and one over 32". I think that is right.

its 34 not 32 unless its because of some boundry up river or something.

Thanks for the info. Just got back home, did not catch any stripers, but landed a 56,35,34,25,24 and about twenty 5-10 lb cats. We caught plenty of bait at deep bottom early this morining and had our first double at 6:00. We had a nice enjoyable day on the water. Thanks again, Berkley

Nice work Berkley. Sounds like fun. The fish were on today. I went to the tournament weigh-in at Jordan point. Lots of nice fish.
