I look at Florida as the model I would try to emulate. They provide outstanding amenities for anglers and at the same time, they protect their species. It seems like a well thought out plan to protect their resources, thus providing insurance for their future revenue dollars.
Yes Florida is the best of all models for states to follow.Their ban on com. mullet fishing has brought back the species to record levels along with the fish that forage one em.They understand the value of the traveling angler as tourism is the biggest money maker in the state.On the other end of the spectrum Is the land of fruits and nuts.
Kalifornia.All licensing has gotten them is closed fishing area's..
Some of them the more productive area's for sport..
Politicians are greed montsers fueled by massive ego's see Blogojevich in Indiana..If you think your state will be like Florida good luck..It will never happen especially in these lean times..

It's usually darkest just before it turns Black..
IMO the best route right now is the registry..
A good way to get a accurate number of anglers..Once this is established perhaps we can have a real voice in how things are done.Pol's will listen to real numbers..
Baby steps..
