Spence, Stripers Forever wants to keep the EEZ closed even though there is no science to support its continued closure (stripers fully recovered since 1995 and now very abundant). They claim that they want to keep it closed so that commercial fishermen won't have more waters available to them to fish.

What Stripers Forever doesn't tell you is that a closed EEZ is closed to both commercial and recreational fishermen.

and all fish for that matter, is 90 percent
commonsense guesswork."
