...If your on the water...and.. (No, I don't mean on the cover of the magazine!!! )...and you see some illegal activities of any type happening...ie: (Short fish taking, excessive bag limits, out of season fish harvesting...Bloocrab molesting!! ) or any other type of Fishing related NO-NOs feel free to call the R.I.

...and don't be a cheap skate!!!...take a quarter with you just in case..(better yet, 35 cents !!)..


...If it helps, think about this for a second. How was the fishing 15-20 years ago compared to now??...


....are you drooling yet??....



.....Now think about how happy you'd be, if the Pastueres were still full of cows!!!....well there not!...If people would have taken the "INITIATIVE" years ago to regulate their takings, the fishing stocks would not be in jeapordy...and everyone would be walking around "MOO-ING" or at least stepping on Menure once in awhile!! ....

...instead, the only song were singing is:

......O'l MacChusetts had a farm E-I-E-I-O...and on this farm she had some Cows...E-I-E-I-O...with a cow - cow here, a cow - cow there, here a cow, there a cow.......everywhere a cow ...cow.....O'l MacChusetts had some cows.....many years a-go!!...


...even if you don't get a cow in your "fishing lifetime"....wouldn't it be great to be sitting at a table playing checkers at the (NHFF)* and hear about your grandson/daughter landing one !!!...think of them...if not yourself!......by the way...*(NHFF = Nursing Home for Fish-aholics)...

rat line?

Up here in the north country an observed poacher is either going swimming(preceded by a good thrashing) or he/she may simply be told to walk the straight and narrow or suffer great bodily harm. We don't f--- around with @@@@@@@s who steal are natural resources.

Mass EPO's actually have an 800 number as well. 1-800-632-8075. They are open 6:00 AM - Midnight. Here is a link to a poster that some of the guys worked on at another site that you can print out and post on poles and such in the areas that you fish. Education is the key. Thanks.
