2024 Striped Bass Moratorium 25:48

The numbers speak for themselves, and they paint a concerning picture. Recent data reveals a significant decline in the Chesapeake striped bass stock. Yet, an often overlooked fact is the thriving Hudson Striped Bass Stock, which is currently experiencing record highs. Given the alarming situation in the Chesapeake, the Striped Bass Management Board is poised to take severe measures. Unfortunately, this typically translates to restrictions for the recreational angler. Currently, New York's coastline is buzzing with anglers catching an impressive number of large bass, a sight I haven't witnessed in my three and a half decades in fisheries management. Meanwhile, the board convenes today to determine their next steps. New York's anglers have been diligent, taking necessary actions to safeguard the Hudson Striped Bass fishery. Their efforts, from conserving menhaden to regulating commercial quotas and transitioning away from J hooks, have clearly paid off in ensuring the fish's survival upon release. Given these distinct scenarios, should we consider managing these fisheries as two separate entities? It seems only just that New York's anglers enjoy the fruits of their labor without bearing the brunt of Chesapeake's challenges. It's undeniable: the majority of the bass in the Bight each year are migrating to the Hudson. This flourishing fishery is essentially under a de facto moratorium due to the minimal slot size permitted for catches. We've upheld our end of the bargain; now, let us fish. It's crucial to acknowledge and reward anglers for their commitment to reviving New York's striped bass fishery.…
