Bass guys are using undersized scup as bait and they (the EPO'S) do not do anything about it. Every single day I saw a couple of charter guys filling live wells with scup of all sizes for bass fishing close to shore, there was a guy fishing in the ferry slip for them...every day!!!. I called them and no one came...not even a return call. I left several messages never spoke to a human.
Enforcement is an utter joke. I can not even understand why they make laws they can not and will not enforce. And...even if they do nab a poacher...the punishment is a slap on the wrist minor fine. It is laughable.
IMO. you need to catch them and take away their right to fish commercially (either selling fish or chartering) on the spot... for life, on the first offense. When this happens you will see all the others fall in line quick.
