You know what? If someone wont take a charter because killing one fish just isnt enough, than GOOD. Stay your a_ _ on the golfcourse and let the bass population have a shot at not collapsing.
I hope other states follow suit an start playing chess instead of checkers

Ivan,
I play golf as much as I fish and one fish is okay with me, most times I don't keep any.

What he said, I tee it up more that I cast a lure these days, priorities have changed and lack of fish certainly curbs my enthusiasm for the 3am alarm. First year I've never brought at least one striper home for the grille.

Now imagine your lack of enthusiasm if you were paying 1200 bucks for the boat for the day.

I wonder how many charters are not "vacationers" but actually guys who have recently purchased a boat and want to "see how it's done" and maybe even where they should fish....

If I would have had the cash 5 yrs ago when I started from my old boat, that would have saved me a lot of wasted fuel and skunkings....

Several issues with this. Will be hard to enforce and chase down perps from a Sailboat

Seriously, that is a bad camel nose inside the tent.

I don't think many at all, negligible.
