RE:ASMFC declares
With Good news also comes bad news!!!!!!!!!!
It is very good news that the weaks are recovered, and I can attest to it, I had never caught a weak until last year but always heard stories from my father and grandfather, and have caught a decent amount and they are good sized too.
But unfortunately I agree with John, now it won't be long until they are wiped out again, no bag limit and only 16" to keep one. I fished a beach just last week and killed them, every guy there except maybe 1 other than me kept every single fish they caught, dragging strings of them back to their cars. One guy even had a basket strapped to his back so he could load em up and carry em out!!! It killed me because these idiots don't understand that you need to leave some to keep the stocks up. By the way, they were spawning or something because a lot of them were females with eggs dripping from them.
So, it won't be long again until we are cying because we cant catch them.
just my opinion of course.
