    ASMFC Striped Bass Draft Addendum III - Plain English Summary

    I’m not sure I follow you. Are you saying each of us would get a set number of tags? Interesting idea. How many do you think would make sense? Should it match the number given to each commercial? If that’s the case, I’d sign on in a heartbeat. And what’s your take on making striped bass...

    ASMFC Striped Bass Draft Addendum III - Plain English Summary

    The POS and POH are referring to when a commercially caught striped bass gets tagged. Ma, RI and NC allowed Point of Sale tagging which leaves a lot of opportunity for up sizing - or culling. Now they must be tagged as soon as they're caught. As for C&R, I see it as essential for the industry...

    ASMFC Striped Bass Draft Addendum III - Plain English Summary

    I never bought into the consumer argument. You can’t buy venison at the market either, you either know a hunter or go get one yourself. If somebody wants a bass, let them catch it. We all got through the commercial moratorium years just fine. Everyone knew this day would come, and now it’s...

    Some Facts On How Fluke Have Been Managed

    Actually the 90s were our best years. We passed the bunker bill - the first state on the coast to push out Omega, the blackfish bill - which to this day keeps the com trip limit at 25 and the striped bass bill, that has kept NY coms at 10%. And I was at the table for everyone of those bills...

    Some Facts On How Fluke Have Been Managed

    If that were the case we'd never change everything. This entire policy is injected with politics and that is where we can effect change. I've been there before with both striped bass and menhaden, and it was political will that got it done.

    Some Facts On How Fluke Have Been Managed

    That still doesn't solve the inequities between states. If we continue to base this fishery, or any fishery on history, then we will always get less.

    The com quota is set at 60% and being their hitting their quotas that will not change any time soon. And don't take this the wrong way, but I'm getting tired of hearing about the "head boat crowd". I'm thinking about the guys that I fish with and the 1/2 million people that enjoy fishing and...
