I am not thrilled about a commercial season on stripers.... BUT, saying a guy can't commercially fish for Bass because it is not his sole (or major) source of income is kinda... well.... BS.

What if I wanted to sell some lures part time to recoup some of my money spent on supplies? (and paid the taxes, etc...) Would that be OK? Surely it is not my full time job, but I can't see where that would be considered unethical, immoral or illegal.

And as a full disclaimer.... I have no intention or desire to commercial fish OR sell lures to make some spare Cheddar.

Joe but you're comparing selling a natural resource for supplemental income to selling extra plugs on the side to do the same thing. The plugs can be rebuilt, the fishery may not. Seems like apples to oranges to me.

And I think it's a joke the rec harvest wasn't cut in half as well...

No I get it... and just to be clear, I'd like to see limits SLASHED across the board.

I just fell that legislating WHO can sell commercially is against the freedoms I believe in.

PS. I got your VM, I'll give you a call.
