RI angler fishing Mass waters. A great fisherman who has won the Schaefer Cup. He had not had a 50# in nine years and then got 4 in one morning.

Good for him.
Good for his family.
Bad for the fishery.
Bad for us.
Bad for the MA commercials.
Probably bad for BI. Taxes are high in Massachusetts.
So it goes.

Not for nuttin, there are a lot of RI commercials fishing Mass waters and this has been historically the case. As current regs/allocations are based on "historic" landings, and "historically" a fair amount of RI anglers have always fished Mass commercial (believe it or not in Mass waters), it is not unreasonable to see RI anglers fish the Mass season.

its halarious rhody comms can take what 6 ri fish daily.

Mass guys come in and take 30 rhody fish.

It would stand to reason that rhody comms make a move to bag it and ban rhody comm fishing for stripers so the mass guys cant pick their pockets, or have the mass dailys lowered so the mass guys cant pick their pockets.

I dunno I guess everyone believes that a dollar today is worth more than a dollar tomorrow. I'm not into the comm. striper fishery its senseless...


rhody comms getting short changed and their pockets picked by the mass guys should make a move to ban comm. striper fishing in ri water Period. Go get their 6 pack licenses and run 2 or 3 charters a day. The dough from charters would CRUSH what they get for killing their 6 fish Oh wait I put 3 seconds of thought into that didnt I..... Ohhh and if they run lobster traps, they can bait traps, go to dock pick up charter go out, come back drop off pick up charter go out, drop off the last charter check traps... ohhh wow I wonder if a day like that would put more dough in pockets than killing 6 fish LOL ha. hahahhahahaha
