Well done to all taking part in what we do
We'll see if the system actually works when the penalties are enforced *after* the appeal process.

Enforcement is fine and dandy, but if there is no significant monetary consequence (and just a slap on the wrist) then this is in no way a win.

They tried to extend the line in Mass waters a couple years ago to include Nantucket sound...but that didn't work either...

They can't extend it on their own, but they will use their survey data to lobby the Feds to extend the EEZ in order to benefit their state economy.

Do blues and bass winter together in that area?

They could later send undercover agents on the boats they observe 'out of bounds' to see what their up to. Or maybe have agents meet the boats back at the dock to see whats in their boxes.
