Bryan is right on. Commercial fisherman are always made out to be the bad guys but in the end it is the rec group that does way more damage. Longer season, WAY more fisherman, poaching, no set quota whatsoever=a lot more damage done on the fish. I also agree that only people whos main source of income has to do with commercial fishing should be able to fish the season. To many people use the season as an excuse to fill the boat with bass, take pictures and pay for half the fuel for the year. In return if they eliminated this crowd from the season it would last longer and benefit the people that actually depend on that chunk of cash as part of there total income.
And oh ya I don't want to hear it about conn people fishing the very limited RI season when at one point two seasons ago the majority of the fleet fishing the MA season were from RI. Especially considering we dont have the option to fish yours.
