Again this illustrates how rule makers are out of touch with reality. I don't understand the permit reasons in the first place! (I have one though) What are they actually doing besides issuing permits? I see no reason for permitting except that it is a baby step towards saltwater fishing lic's. I think what ever they are doing could be done without permits. For the most part there is little enforcement. It is nearly impossible to enforce this.
How many of you actaully sent in your catch results of tuna fishing EACH DAY YOU WENT? You are suppose to within 24 hours of fishing. I am calling the feds on you.
Surf fishing...If you catch one I doubt anyone will say anything but the rule is you have to release it. In my view, they never considered the possiblity of a surf caster being able to catch one so they made the lic for boats.
