BassDawg, not joking...
Tell me if i am wrong,and this is what i thought to be true when i started this.
1,100,000 lbs of stripers more or less is what MA comm's are allowed to take for 2009.
If Ma abolished the Striper fishery all together the other states do take a split share of that 1,100,000 lbs since it is all regulated by the feds?
So really Ma comms miss out and the commercial fishing is just extended in other states to make the market quota...

No, that is not a sure thing or even close to being a sure thing. Mass will have to work out a new agreement with the ASMFC due to the slot limit. For 2009 Mass owns their commercial quote and it is highly unlikely that the ASMFC will try to give that to another state in 2009. Plus now you will be looking at a 7 7 split on states that do or don't allow commercial fishing. It is highly likely that the Mass quota will not be given to another state. I think what you will actually be seeing is the end of commercial fishing for stripers if Mass ends it because I think NY would soon fall in line.

i am aware of that possibility,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
but it still reflects on the MA take, right?
just trying to hep ya arrive at better numbers, bro!
and i DO agree that we are looking at the overall state of the migratory stocks; still yet a slot, a reduction IN HALF of the daily allowable kill for MA, and stiffer fines SHOULD go a long way towards protecting our beloved prey!!
not trying to ruffle any feathers, my fine feathered friend.
