spot burning has been the biggest issue with online surf fishing reports. How many times has a spot that holds a few guys been blown up online and then over run? Knuckleheads leaving trash and illegally parking on private property has caused loss of access on more than one occasion .

What I'm seeing is the locals in the area. They have easy access to good fishing
grounds. It's a simple and comfortable walk. The sand eels were also deep in the
back of jamaica bay. Yes you read it correctly. Sand eels deep in the back of Jamaica
bay during the fall run. The stripers were biting good that year. The bluefish also
love sandeels too. They'll snap them in half out of a reaction bite. Not necessarily
a migratory feed. Field 6 at jones lights up.
This is dangerous. I'm a AAA caster.
5 distance fisherman came on the pier and intimidated
20 other fisherman. By the end of the week the local B&T
lost 80 percent of it's business. You see how smart I am.

not necessarily. as much as we hate getting "mugged" and "sharing" God's beaches and fields, its the paucity of new hunters and people fishing that endangers any future conservation efforts. Discouraging the "googans" and ruining and eliminating public hunting lands in some ways defeats the purpose of the Pittman-Robertson Act of 1937. Whitetail deer would be a museum piece. Remember the moratorium on stripers in the 80s ? Hell, NY even found itself dropping, yes, actually reducing, the cost of a big game license by 25% just a few years ago in the hope that the license, hunting and shooting fees that support outdoor sports would increase overall.

I'm so tightlipped about stripers that I surprised my son, who is well-versed in "omerta", this past summer. We took my young granddaughters out mackerel fishing he was shocked when I was nonplussed as they would proudly boast "We're catching Mack-A-Rel!!" to every passing boast. He looked at me and I quickly commented, "Mackerel fine, but if they did that with bass, granddaughters or not, they'd be swimming home!!"

which is why I see nothing wrong with a very general location (which once typed is already old news---Newsflash, fish swim !) such as Central South shore, North fork, etc. Of course, a guy texts his buddy who can't make it but texts his next best buddy, who then texts his... But mostly I want to know if a stretch is weeded in. I can stand outside and know the direction of the wind and guess whether there is a significant sweep. I suppose the guy that works 6 12 hour days can use a little more. One thing I find irresponsible is taking pix of fish, any fish, you are not harvesting for dinner, with the possible exception of a PB over the slot if it can be released quickly.
