I have seen these guys in action ... while I was fishing Montauk via boat, about a dozen or so "recreational/guide" boats working a school of feeding stripers working thier along the coast up toward Turtle Cove and the point itself ... and all doing well without interfering which each other's action ... and not interfering with the guys on the shore ... along comes a net boat, drops in his net and within minutes, the whole action is gone, whiped out the entire school ... it was frustrating as hell.

I called the coast guard and they said they couldn't do a thing ... it happened again later in the morning, same thing ... I was surprised none of the boats said anything ... more schools came through during the day, but it was crazy how quickly the action was killed for many more anglers ... I have no sympathy for these guys either ...
