Hats off to the authorities; myopic greed will eliminate entire fisheries eventually.
The abuse starts at grassroot levels. I know someone who fishes an area that I fish a lot and not only is he chunking with only treble hooks, but I've NEVER seen him throw a fish back in the water. It's a small community and people have said things to him (delicately), but he ignores it and continues his practice.
The only good thing is that he doeesn't catch a lot of bass....but he abuses the Tautog and Scup.
