I never thought I would say this given my romantic reminisscence of the 70's and early 80's and the dropping ooff of a lot of bass at Old Harbor fish market but:
#1, bring back the 36 inch one fish a day limit.
#2, stop the commercial sale of Striped Bass along the entire coast, you want to eat one then catch it yourslef or go hungry.
#3 In other words, it's time to realize the greater importance of this fish and it's economic impact and make it a gamefish.
#4 The menhaden fishery needs to be stopped. No harvet for commercial nees and no harvest for supply to bait shops either.
There I said it, I have come out of the Gamefish for Striped Bass closet.
Let the persecution begin.
