Kick this around for a while...from another site talking about boats other than Ark Bait taking pogies from Narr. bay...

"However, the geniuses up at the state offices failed to even enact measures to prevent other companies from waltzing in and raping our bay. A boat from ME, 150 foot reduction boat, can hold 1 million pounds, and worked till dark yesterday to get 300,000# in their first day of fishing.
The company claims they are bait only.......I am not buying it. We have no idea where these fish are sold once they leave our state, as we have no authority once they do.......The net boat for these guys is as big as ARKs main boat!!

They actually took 500,000 pounds yesterday, and will work till 2PM today, when their license expires. They will have taken 1 milion pounds roughly by this afternoon.

Ark was also limited to 75,000 pounds per day this week."
