I seem to see fishing licenses from a distance, however, they tend to move as soon as you are the vicinity. This past Wednesday, a group of 6 spread out on shore and then four split up in two boats. They definitely have a strategy to get as many fish as possible. Stringers are "hidden" on shore and then retrieved when as then run to load up the buggy and leave. And they really do run in a serious hurry. They also will follow you around if you are catching (and releasing!) fish. I can't imagine that the area of the river around Warren will sustain the rate of harvest that this group appears to be accomplishing. It's a complete shame as the bass fishing in the fall is usually a highlight for me. A similar thing happens on Keystone Lake near me. A friend of mine counted fourteen buggy and trailers in the parking lot a few years ago. So far at the dredge it seems to be the same group each time. Maybe the refinery can leak something into the river to make the fish non-edible but not kill them.
I plan to pen a letter to the Fish Commission to at least offer an opinion.
