Gentlemen,
A few thoughts...
1) Though a lot of us were in favor of 1 over 28 and one over 40 the numbers show there to be almost no difference due to the relatively few people who take bass over 28" to begin with. some will disagree with this statement but it is just true. the average person takes less than one keeper bass per year. I thought this was BS the first time I read it but I, as most of us on this board are the exeption, rather than the rule. I still do not like the 2 over 28, but it is not that bad.
2) In the time I have been reading this board I have never read complaints about all the states South of MA that have been taking 2 fish, including our beloved RI.
3) for those who are complaining on this board and want to write letters to express their opinion.....TOO LATE YOU FOOL...
there was extensive information out on this board and in many other places around the hearings of two weeks ago...that was the time to get your voice heard...now it is just plain too late...please remember that if each one of you wrote a letter or showed up at a hearing and gave your opinion, things might be different
4) I would go on but why...those complaining here seem to be just like most recs...they want things to happen then do not show up to be part of the process....it is a damn shame
