I would not say that is totally correct. Soon as you drop South of New Jersey the regulations are all over the place with different size limits in different areas and different size limits for different times of the year. Some areas allow three fish others two. You need to have the regs in your hand most of the time if you're traveling around.
As was noted in the meeting minutes by the NH rep. There has been this creep in total catch numbers due to loosening up of the regulations, mostly South of NJ. They keep allowing for small increases in the catch without totally them up.
The most important part of the report is the large amount of disclaimers at the top of the report. Would you be betting the ranch on this report after reading the disclaimers.
