It is completely illegal to posess or even fish for stripers in the EEZ. Yeh the commercial guys even admitted to saying the hell with that at a A6 meeting last fall. Two guys said they go beyond the 3 mile EEZ right to Diadoti's face. One of the guys said he goes out past 12 and to hell with the laws. There are supposedly some loose interpretations in the sense that you can catch them off of Race Point and run them across to Marshfield (a lot of guys - especially charters do just that) or running from the Islands back in. But it is illegal to fish bass in the EEZ.

There is talk about removing that restriction but last I heard it was still talk.

Oh yeh, all those 'Tucket guys fishing the tail of the Great Point Rip are in the EEZ...
