Ever go out on a quiet stream or pond?
Just one minor aspect:
No motor boats allowed.... then try fishing one with everything from Jet Skis, all sorts of motor boats, water skiing.... its a big difference.
What do all the boats and motors leak?
Ok... so there is a billion boats out there already.
I`m still sticking to more trash, more fish killed, more corruption, more boats, more parking problems....
How about quality of time spent fishing? Relaxed or racing all over desperate to catch fish.
I don`t know....something just doesn`t feel right about this.

Never looked at it from that point. When you put in that light I certainly see the issues it could raise. |

When you see the "Pros" fishing the freshwater lakes, do you ever see non-participants there on the same water? Dad's with kids, couple of buddies, anyone else? I love fishing alone or on a deserted stretch with a couple of buds, I will not enjoy getting crowded out. If someone happens along, I don't mind. But I can see schools getting spooked by prize seeking yahoos with patches all over their shirts that says those companies now own the fish. You really can't compare black bass to a migratory species like stripers, I guess. I suppose we'll have to wait and see and pray for the best.  |

Most of the locals and can't pony up the 2,500 and there is no way they can personally profit from it so you can be assured they will be against it.
Essentially, we're against everything and we'd like to roll the clock back about fifty years. It's why you see no mention of New England hospitality in the any of the tourism literature.
