With the new striper rules for Chesapeake Bay, these will come in handy and
may save a few more fish. Highly recommended.

Isn't the mortality rate pretty high among fish that are caught and
then released?

I'm not much of a fisherman, but I wonder if a lot of avid fishers
continue hooking fish after fish after fish when the bite is on, even
when they might already have a daily limit aboard? One of those
awkward places where, for some, enjoyment of the pastime and
protection of the resource might require some careful balancing.
