We have finished compiling our 2007 Annual Fishing Survey Results. In 2007 we processed 621 surveys compared to 445 in 2006. We had double digit returns from most states from NC to ME, with more than 150 each from MA and NJ. We believe that this year’s survey has again produced a good representative sample of sentiments from fishers all along the striper’s migratory range. We will be sending this information to the press and to fishery policy makers everywhere. We hope that you will use it personally and that you
share it with your local club or fishing organization to advocate for the goal of coast-wide striped bass game fish.
The complete Excel spreadsheet of survey responses entitled Survey Totals is attached above. You'll also find three other documents entitled Commentary, Key Comparisons and Sample Survey there. Give the documents a minute or so to open as our servers can get a little overloaded at times.
