Very nice piece from SJ Blog on Striped bass and ASMFC

MakoMike, you're a commercial/ charter guy, no?

You seem like an intelligent person. Do you ever feel like a complete tool who blindly regurgitates, abides, and stands by the laws, regardless of morals and ethics? Do you ever state your own feelings/opinions/ think for yourself or do you just merely quote the ASMFC employee handbook?

Do you feel your loyalty to the ASMFC is more rewarding than ignoring common sense? Again, you seem like an intelligent guy. Not a sheeple. Must be a battle within, fighting against intellect and common sense, but feeling the need to fluff the ASMFC's brain trust as well. Must be a "let's take a hefty dose of Reprisitoll and agree with whatever the ASMFC says" type of deal...

Good for you...
