Tough question. I definitely would like to see the pogie boats banned. However , since they are not and are out there taking thousands and thousands of fish anyway , I don't see a problem with guys getting a few for fishing. The boats are going to grab all the pogies they can while the law allows. they aren;t taking any more to give some to local fisherman.

On the other hand , there is the principles involved. Perhaps the pictures of locals getting the bait fish will be used against those trying to limit the pogie boats.

Anyway , as long as its legal for the pogie boats to be in the Bay , I couldn't condemn a guy who gets a few free ones for bait.

BTW , I have never gotten any bait from them.
