		<description><![CDATA[The fishing has been sucking. Here&#8217;s a chance where we can all actually do something about it. Rather than mince words, I&#8217;ll paste them directly from a mailing by the Chesapeake Bay Foundation: In a matter of days, the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission (ASMFC) will meet to discuss the fate of menhaden (AKA the most important fish in the sea). At the end of that meeting, it will adopt an addendum to its menhaden management plan, which will determine new overfishing thresholds and target fishing rates. Now, more than ever, we need your help. In 32 of the past 54 years, we have overfished menhaden, and its population now stands at its lowest point on record—a mere 8 percent of what it once was!&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=6139&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Even a boat guy like me realizes that if you fish in the Northeast, you&#8217;re doing yourself a disservice if you don&#8217;t read Surfcaster&#8217;s J0urnal. John Papciak is the magazine&#8217;s fly guru, and a proponent of one of the most hardcore ways there is to fish for striped bass: Swimming out to the rocks. He gives a great account of it in the most recent issue called &#8220;Confessions of a Wetsuiter.&#8221; Intrigued, I decided to email him a few questions, just because it&#8217;s so intense and maybe, well, borderline insane? Here&#8217;s the interview: Swimming out to the far rocks at night seems like an extreme way to fly fish. What made you decide to try it? There is whole contingent in Montauk (surfcasters) who&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=5998&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Tosh Brown took some awesome shots in incredibly harsh conditions and posted some of them here, in a lightbox on his site. Now my job starts.

		<description><![CDATA[Score one for participatory journalism. In 2007 David Kinney, a career newspaperman, dove headfirst into the collective insanity that is the Martha&#8217;s Vineyard Striped Bass and Bluefish Derby. The result is The Big One, an exhaustively researched window into the people and culture that fuel the derby, and the mania that fuels them. It would be tempting to think this was an easy book to write; go fishing and then type it all out. That would be incorrect. Kinney deserves credit for gaining access to a group so paranoid and insular that getting any of them to talk and take him fishing is remarkable. (In fact, reading some passages, you&#8217;re left to wonder if the source is on the level or passing along blatant&#8230;<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=fishingjones.com&#038;blog=2996930&#038;post=3894&#038;subd=fishingjones&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Some shaky footage from fishing for false albacore last week. [UPDATE: Reloaded the video after trying to take some of the shakiness out. It was making me sick.] [NOTE: For everyone asking, the rod is a Helios prototype, which is why it has a different reel seat and coloration than what's in production. And, yes, that is floating line.
