Where will the money go?
I was interviewed by a rep of the DEC ( the usual questions i.e. catch, time, frequency of trips, how much spent per trip) When I asked about a SW lic they said Maine was not willing to impose one in 2008 so the Feds will in 2009. I have no other verification of this.
If its a Fed thing will they also control the process of those states in compliance now?? Would it be like the duck stamp?? a fed stamp and individual state stamps??? I've bought FW lics for the last 40 years and I see where the money goes (hatcheries and stocking programs).
In MaineI have been checked 3 times in 16 years by wardens during duck season and 3 during 20 fishing seasons. How well will this process be inforced. Every member of this site will buy SW lic if required but I think we would like to see it inforced. There is not enough enforcement of the existing bag limits now will my-your 20$ make it any better?? I don't think so.
Will the money go to SW hatcheries and release programs??? The Atlantic Salmon Fish-farming in Maine has suffered because of the possibility of introducing diseses .What about the commercial guys???
