but you can only take 10 day/angler

Funny last year regs were 24 per person per day except Sunday and Monday. This pertains to FRESH WATER only and the demarkation lines put on certian runs. In salt water you could fill a 50 gallon drum legally.
Striper Sniper,
You do know that MOST places that have a herring run have ponds that become de-oxygenated and full of bacteria from the mass amounts of fish in the pond at ome time. More die from lack of oxygen and bacteria than you think. How many herring do you think a comarant can eat in one day? Now multiply that by 100 per herring run. Add 2 racoons per herring run, some lobstermen, and you will soon see that you taking 24 herring per day will not hurt the population. DEM sets limits that keep things in check, dont wory, you could even take 25 and the whole eco system wouldn't collapse.
I'm sure you knew that, I know you've been around this game for quite some time.
Let me guess, you dont fish eels either, caase you have to put a hook in their head and out one eye, you wouldnt fish a live bunker ( if they ever come back) because you have to put a hook in there back and make them swim helplessly around out there in the great big ocean, and you wouldn't feed a snapper blue to a 10 lb fluke right? It's to much WORK to get the bait, keep it alive, transport it, etc etc etc. Guess what, HARD WORK pays off.
Tell you what, seeing that BM has offered to take you fishing in Cape Cod, You bring your soft plastics, BM will bring his herring and we will all keep tabs here as to who catches what.
