Exclamation the legislation

should be targeting the ships that are throwing dead stripers overboard as by -catch instead....

i hope the next time hundreds of floating dead striped bass are seen floating from the herring boats having caught them in their nets
the witnesses will have a camera, but will ALSO get on the radio and cell phone ( @ S-B) and alert
everyone with a boat so they can come see it for themselves.

then we'll have the ammo necessary to change the law.

Raven,

Those reports on the Herring bycatch were...inaccurate...it is important that we target the correct fleet whan incidents like this happen...even with photos it is tough to get anything done with the absolute apathy most recreational fishermen display...many complained on the net about the bycatch that you are referring to, but none, zero, not one....showed up when we asked two years ago...this is why we looooooose

There was massive bycatch and guess what...it happens every year..we have been fighting it for many years but it is some Cod Draggers, some Whiting trawlers and every commercial fishery in the path oif the migration....

"It is impossible to complain and to achieve at the same time"--Basic Patrick (on a good day)
