Ya....the old expression " can't have your cake and eat it too" translates into "can't have your pet food/fish oil pills and hook baits too!!!!"

I don't think it's a matter of baits for fishing. It's a matter of forage for the striped bass. If Omega was stopped, but it meant pogies would be treated like herring and we couldn't use them as bait, then so be it.

But would menhaden still be harvested for stores like GNC to make there health pills........again the fisheries in this country are a COMMONWEALTH resource.....that is a long accepted practice......The american buying fish oil pills at the local health food store has a much a right to that finfish resource as the guy live-lining a pogy to catch a striper........

And like i said, if Omega goes but being able to use them as bait has to go at the same time, then so be it.
