[QUOTE=Typhoon;992281]It's currently from Virginia and yes it's legal to sell in a fish market.

& QUOTE from Leptar: Nope...

Dealers need to have tags with origin of state and comply with that states regulations. Only during the MA commercial season all dealers regardless of what state the fish came from have to follow MA commercial regulations until the quota is reached plus 5 days.
Thank you, Mr. Typhoon and Leptar, for enlightening me. Your information is saddening. It is a loophole.
