Shark bait, for-hire, snappers and using MRIP are in the argument against the changes. The only place where I can see that 3 is a tough pill to swallow is with snappers. For bait or food, 3 snappers isn't enough.

I imagine a lot of the damage is done in targeting the snappers, plus no limits..I see people catching buckets full...imagine what would happen if juvenile stripers were targeted that way

Scott they have the same limit as any rec .was 10 fish going now 3 , that,s one reason they took the whole family ……...I,d go by Beavertail & I see $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ white buckets , For papa bear , Mamma Bear & allllllllllllllllllllllll the fu c in baby bears ,if the don,t fall in .
in reality this change will probably hurt them the most …. where they are fishing for them & where they fish …….just about the only other fish they expect to catch are small scup ..but that limit is high ><><

ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!
