I could be wrong but I think the spawning areas there were always (recently??) closed for about 30 45 days. I think this just adds additional areas to the closed areas.
It is what they should do to Raritan bay in NJ shortly prior and during the spawning season on the Hudson. There are some of the biggest fattest fish you will find loaded with eggs. You catch them and they loose their eggs. I don't know if the ones losing their eggs would have spawned but it can't be good for fish loaded w/eggs to have to fight like that shortly before spawning.
