This is old news guys.With the reauthorization of Magnuson-Stevens last year the feds stated that any coastal state without an angler registry in effect by 2009,would be forced to abide by a federal registry.There is no mandatory fee,but it's going to cost money to run it.We can gripe about it,but,it's being implemented to give us we wanted.Better numbers.We don't know how many recreational guys are fishing,or how many fish they catch.Therefore management has been based on estimates.We asked for this.
