I really think they need to sell fishing licences for Salt Water just to pay for more enforcement of their weak-ass regulations. The regs need to be tightened up, fines need to go up and enforcement needs to go up. We, as fisherman, should pay for this. It's our sport. It should cost you $1000 if you get caught with an undersize Striper not $50.
Other things to spend this money should be spent on would be habitat reclamation and general management issues that are non-existant on the east coast.
