i guess since hardcore surfcasters fish at night they have no idea what happens on the water in the light.most of the C@R that i see is after a limit is already in the box.i guess most guys have never walked the docks out in Montauk when the partyboats recs and charter boats come in.take a look at moriches inlet, shinecock and jones ,fire island, rockaway and every other inlet on the east coast on a weekend.you don't have to be a genuis to see the damage being done by the rec's.you want to protect the bass,1 fish a day with a tag,no fishing sping and fall,just like snook fishing in florida.enforcement is easy,a few big fines and the word gets out fast.
