Cool video and a good message whether or not you approve of the politics of the organization (which I do not know anything about). CnR is something I applaud and should be done carefully. If this video stops one more idiot from kicking a fish back (probably wont though) I wholeheartedly approve!
I love the boiling water shots... oh man, I cant wait til Spring.

Don't go there. You too can buy a commercial license and keep whatever the law allows. That you choose not to is your choice, that is all. Also keep in mind that the fish kept in a commercial fishery benefit many people besides the guy who catches them. Those people vote, too, so their opinion counts though it is convenient to ignore them. From the general publics' point of view, the optimal use of a public resource almost always involves commercial as well as recreational use. |

Bingo.
Doctor scmoctor! Quit your job and be a Striper educational speaker! 
Seriously, this is a point lost on most people. Rod and reel commercial of any species is one of the lowest bycatch and other negative impacts. |

I would love to see the striped bass become a gamefish. I like catching them more than eating them. I like catching them more than selling them. I think a nice compromise would be 1 fish at 32". This would do wonders for the resource and most likely be the most agreed upon compromise.

The problem is, this is where they get a lot of their support, and people do not know their politics.
No different than an RI fishing club and the pogie debate. A lot of blind followers who didn't understand the situation.
Supporting CnR is one thing, being 100% anti commercial is another. |
