  1. I am absolutely appaulled at this increase in fees. Every year I purchase the super sportsman for $68. With fees and everything included that has risen to $108 (including $10 DMP fee and $10 trout stamp). It wouldn't bother me so much if I knew all the money was going into the Conservation Fund, but they (Albany) has no account of where the money actually goes. Smells fishy to me!

  2. Yankee, I would have to agree with you. Would the DEC allow us to fish for bass if it was destroying the population? I would have to believe they had several marine biologists looking into this before they allowed us to target, catch and release bass. Also, I have a bass boat which I have been using to troll for salmon, steelies and browns and to show my kids (4 year old twins) how much fun fishing is, since they are in more shallow water up to now.

  3. I would never keep any fish out of a pond with all the runoff from farmers fields, etc. The weeds are getting worse lately, but that pond is quite deep. I actually target holes in the weed beds or cast out past the weeds. That seems to be where the larger fish are.

    I know many of the migrants who work for the area farmers go there and take out fish in buckets. They don't understand the impact.

  4. My buddy and I have fished a pond on route 531 twice the past week and we have caught approximately 45 -50 keeper largemouth each time. Both times consisted of about 2 hours of fishing. Most are about .5 to .75 lbs, but we did catch one 4lb 14oz. and a few that were a little smaller. We have used black or dark green senkos hooked wacky style. We also caught many smaller ones too.
