Abstract:
The state's striped bass population declined during the 1970s. Because of migration patterns, multi-state cooperation was needed to manage recovery. The 1984 federal Atlantic Striped Bass Conservation Act accomplished this, and the bass is now restored.

Abstract:
Striped bass fishing is at its best off the Outer Banks from September to March. However, it was not always so. In the 1970s, the species was in decline. Congressional passage of the Emergency Striped Bass Management Act began the recovery, which now allows fishermen once again to enjoy fishing for striped bass.

Abstract:
Changes in habitat quality, toxic waste, and overfishing led to a decline of the striped bass, or rockfish, in the Albemarle Sound-Roanoke River ecosystem in the 1970s and 1980s. Regulating harvest and Roanoke River flows are helping the species recover.

Abstract:
The Roanoke River-Albemarle Sound striped bass population is rebuilding after a decade of decline. Continued conservation and protection of habitat (water) quality should foster this trend.

Abstract:
Water pollution, habitat alteration, and overfishing have contributed to the decline of one of the country's best striped bass fisheries in the Albemarle Sound and Roanoke River. A project now underway in Aurora may help to reverse that trend. Using N.C. Sea Grant Program and National Coastal Research Institute research, Lee and Harvey Brothers of Aurora became the first persons in the nation to pond-raise hybrid sea bass commercially when they harvested their first crop of 70,000 pounds. The fish is a cross between a striped bass and a white fish. Venters discusses what this success means to the aquaculture industry and to the recovery of the fish in the wild.

Abstract:
The Roanoke River is the major spawning ground for striped bass. Since the 1970s, the population has been plummeting. To help in the recovery effort, the North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission stopped striped bass fishing in the Roanoke from the spring of 1990 until January 1991. Striped bass fishing will still be allowed, but on a catch-and-release basis. The authors include guidelines to follow to make certain the released stripers survive.

Abstract:
Striped bass populations, once abundant in the Albemarle Sound, have dwindled over the years, affecting commercial and recreational fishermen. Among the factors contributing to the decline are the Roanoke River dams, poor egg survival, poor fry survival, and overharvesting of the spawning stock.

Abstract:
Federal and State wildlife agents uncovered a significant illegal market for striped bass from both the Chesapeake Bay and inland waters of North Carolina. These illegal harvests have likely contributed to decline in the fish population.

Abstract:
Duke Power Company operated an experimental hypolimnetic aerator in Lake Norman, North Carolina, in the summer of 1984. It showed that an oxygenated cold-water refuge area could be created for striped bass, which are often stressed to the point of mortalities in southeastern reservoirs in late summer.

Abstract:
The alarming decline in the populations of striped bass along the Atlantic seaboard in the last decade has prompted proposals for new legislation. The proposed bills would provide a moratorium on striped bass fishing in all states until a management plan is implemented.
