Hard part for us up here in Maine is we have such a small voice. 20 or so of us at the meeting with a split about 50/50 charter an sport fishermen. We all agree'd as to whats needed with 1 fish 32 in. no quota swapping,keep out of the EEZ and that steps shouda been made sooner. the kid that did the presentation did one hell of a good job considering the science babble within the document.We've held the gamefish line for around 50 yrs an take the worst hit with lack of fish due to the abuses south of us no matter what group does them. The 80's were hard . As with the 80's the number of fishermen will dwindle,both sport and comms.the rebuilding will fall to those of us left who fishing for stripers is a passion.People never listen as it means they have to realize that they're part of the problem too.Those of us working to fix whats broke will keep at it. The nay sayers and greedy are a waste of time as it's all about them. save your efforts for posetive steps to help the fish you enjoy fishing for. Keep what your gonna just remeber to use it properly. they taste great,are good to share with others and are a prize within themselves for the joy you got from them.I will always do as I have. fish a Tourney from time to time ,release the majority I catch and eat the few that I do keep.
