It's been going down each year, it always comes back to money. The lack luster fishing on Seneca the last few years has not helped. I myself know at least a dozen folks that usually fish it and won't this year. I'll buy a ticket probably for myself but wont be fishing it unless I talk some clients into it. It needs an extra boost from a big business or two to bring in more folks. Also if they still have it, need to dump the getting a raffle ticket for the first fish you weigh in the first day. Talk about killing alot of small fish for nothing. Just get some cool prizes and raffle off to everyone that entered. Then guys that never fish on the lake would buy a ticket.
Thanks for the info Jason and the hard work putting the time in to find out the information. I was afraid that's what the reason would be.
