Require the use of non-offset, non-stainless steel circle hooks by all HMS permit holders with a shark endorsement when fishing for sharks recreationally south of 41° 43' N latitude (near Chatham, Massachusetts - the northern extent of the dusky shark's U.S. Atlantic range), except when fishing with flies or artificial lures."
