Your assumption is wrong. Just ask all the guys that got tickets down at the sub buoy off Block the last two years. And that included plenty of charter boats.

They are definitely needed, but always seem to show up as soon as the bite gets good. Nothing more painful than being over the school with fish splashing on the surface and everyone catching fish but you.
