My error, I thought you were indicating in your earlier post that we would lose 14,400 jobs from the commercial and charter groups if stripers were made a game fish. That you were asking how we would make up for this. I missed that you were referring to the 14,000 number put out at the SF symposium. No, I can not show how this job increase would occur without creating other problems. But when your talking about a million people, for every 10 dollars more you get them to spend you create about 200 jobs.
My focus is not supporting Stripers Forever, I just support game fish status.
