With Threrese Murray becoming new Senate President, should she be a target of emails on this subject??? Her district is Barnstable and ???

I included her on my email as well as Robert O'Leary, Jeff Perry and Sarah Peake (state reps)...

Here is one responce I have gotten:

Dear Mr. G,



Please be aware that the Division of Marine Fisheries opposed the public petition to extend trawler access for squid in the area of Collier’s ledge for one or two weeks in May. The Division testified that allowing additional access in May would likely result in disastrous gear and user conflicts, not to mention possible increases in catch of non-target species. Nevertheless, the Marine Fisheries Advisory Commission, by one vote, approved the proposal allowing one additional week.



I continue to have grave concern about this action and have recommended that the Commissioner of the Department of Fish and Game not approve this regulatory change. I will keep you and all others who inquire about this action appraised of its final outcome.





Regards,





Paul Diodati

A friend of mine was in Boston today, he stoped by DMF and asked some questions, and the guy there said he thought that they would have to remove the phones off the hook from all the calls.

But thats not the case?? Seems that they are not getting that many calls??
Lets go guys, get on the ball!! Make them calls!!

Thumbs down

if i'm not mistaken, the draggers really did a number on the squid last spring, and it put a huge dent in the fishing for the rest of the season.

in that general area, i jigged up just TWO squid in a week of fishing, whereas on a normal evening i'd be jigging up bucket-fulls. this is going to be really awful if it is allowed to continue.
