I'm not sure what you're looking for. some evidence that a charter will go out of business or suffer or that their clients will not book a fishing trip to fish on the acres of bass if their party can only keep 1 fish per client as opposed to two....how do largely catch and release charters stay in business?When you see a guy selling the boat and closing his business because they have been regulated out of fishing then I think that shows hardship.
We had numerous cancellations this year because of cod regulations .
Since a lot of this seems to be based on hunches, my hunch is there will be cancellations due to more restrictive striper regulations.
It's going to happen ...even for the guys that are for one fish.

it sounds like you believe it's about the meat and not the experience necessarily...the new limit is on fish kept, there's no limit on how many you can catch, from your description it shouldn't be any problem keeping the clients tight all day...you'd think that would keep most guys fully booked
