Hudson River Cooperative Angler Program
Calling all Hudson River anglers! The NYSDEC Hudson River Fisheries Unit is looking for help monitoring our striped bass population. The Atlantic States Fisheries Commission requires each state to run a Cooperative Angler Program (CAP) to help collect statistical data useful in estimating the size of striped bass stocks. Anglers volunteer to keep a fishing logbook throughout the striped bass season (March 16th -November 30th). We send each participant a logbook at the start of the season, and they record date, time, general location, and catch during fishing trips on the Hudson between the George Washington Bridge and the Troy Dam. At the end of the season, anglers receive a summary of all the information from the returned diaries. If you are interested in participating, or know someone that might be, please contact hudsonriverfish@dec.ny.gov.

Don't forget to turn in your diaries for the 2015 Cooperative Angler Program (if you haven't already!). I sent mine in today along with my herring diary . . too bad I didn't catch enough fish to fill the diary up : (
. . . the season ended WAY TOO SOON last Spring!

Sweet hat Mud!

That's not much of a report I thought they'd have some numbers to report
-
Did you see this in the report?:
In fact, the two biggest fish caught were 47 inches. One was caught on May 9th around Esopus Meadows from a boat using lures and the other one was caught around Haverstraw on May 10th, also from a boat but they were using bunker as bait.
I love May 9th!

Volunteer for Hudson River Striped Bass Cooperative Angler Program
Do you fish for striped bass in the Hudson River? Whether you catch-and-release or take home a keeper, you can be part of the Cooperative Angler Program. Share your fishing trip information and help biologists understand and manage our striped bass fishery.
Here's how it works: Fill out a logbook we provide or record your trips on your smartphone using DEC's Hudson River online logbook https://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/remediation_hudson_pdf/hrcoopanglerelogbook.pdf (PDF) whenever you fish on the tidal Hudson River (by boat or on the shore). Record general location, time, gear used, what you caught (or if you didn't catch anything), and return the logbook when you are done fishing.
Join today! For more information on the angler program and instructions on installing the Survey123 App to access the online logbook, visit Hudson River Cooperative Angler https://www.dec.ny.gov/animals/6953.html or email hudsonangler@dec.ny.gov.
Note: If you primarily fish for striped bass in New York waters south of the George Washington Bridge, the DEC has a separate Striped Bass Cooperative Anglers Program.
