Drop the dime if you care
All these females being lost from the spawning stock biomass will be the nail in the coffin for the bass.
There is absolutely no way any of those poached fish are figured into ASMFC mortality rate statistics.
Hence, ASMFC's stock assessments and forecasts are completely useless for any purpose other than wasting paper.
If you don't make your voice heard in protest of this horrific waste, or ASMFC's innacurate assessments and forcasts, then you have no right to complain when the stocks collapse,
which is exactly what will happen if the coastwide status quo continues.
