I'm thinking there is a wholesale shift in who has power behind the politicians. Whatever your take on Progressives they wreck everything in sight whether good or bad.

Mostly agree
Hardly any rec people lobstering past nov 1
Cuts a month or so to early lobstering

Where you are wrong is the right whales
In April some right whales are within a quarter mile of the beach on the south shore. Scituate and marshfield.

Every year they are tight to white horse beach areas and probably very close to where pots are set. Last couple years we have as many as ten grouped together.

I agree that their that close , Should have made my point clearer that I didn’t think single pot lines were involved in whale deaths compared 1000 ft trawls , and not sure what break away gear is require or rope strength, I have no dog in this conversation just trying to stay correctly informed. : )

They've got small government in Texas. If you decide to move there, bring some blankets.

The truth on the decision behind the regs is likely something along the lines of what Wdmso supposed.

Can't be. They're an idea, a myth, even though they are surprisingly efficient at wrecking stuff, getting arrested, and then released.

They are all in hiding after storming the capitol. They had to use back channels to close the south side to lobstering. Next thing you know it they will be melting ice everywhere to save the pan fish and muskies. Just give it a month or so.
