The way I see it a shore fisherman gets a commercial striper license that says rod and reel, that distinguishes that person from a boat license. I would believe that he/she legally can not bring them fish to the dealer by boat. And how many times would a shore fisherman catch 15 fish, more then likely zero times, I do believe the shore fisher can maybe somedays catch 5 keepers. The state is still discriminating aganist a certain group of commercial fishmen as far as I am concerned.
The intent of the new rules, is to get a large percent of striper fishermen out of it, even by boat if they only catch a few fish of the open season(greed by a few). Thought this was America where ya have a right to make money.
