Current Striped Bass regs by state
<i>
What is your feeling on the new or proposed regulations for striped bass in your state this year?
As it was explained to many of us this will be only for year 2000 as a new management plan will be enabled for 2001+. Current talk is for a future coastwide slot limit...<img src="/Images/Happy_Face.gif"><!--e1-->
Mass has gone to one 30" <img src="/Images/Sad.gif"><!--e2--> fish per day per angler. I know many people that pushed for a higher minimum size limit. The vast majority of members from the Mass Striped Bass Association were pushing for a 34-36" minimum size. Although many club members were hoping for talk on a slot limit (myself inluded with no intention of keeping smaller fish), the state advisory boards only gave the options of status quo or a slight increase to a 30" minimum size...
Sound off on what you feel your state is doing or not doing enough...
