You are absolutely right about the board members being on for far too long. It pains me to say that Pat Augustine, who came up with this nonsense is from NY. We need this guy out in the worst way.
Let's hope you are right about crushing this in a big way. I have been to a couple of ASMFC meetings here on L.I. and also MRAC (Marine Resource Advisory Council) meetings. The sad part is that the comms outnumber the rec fishermen at every one of them.
Public comment periods are the key here. There should be meetings for this in every state affected. We need numbers to show up and state a reasonable argument, based on facts, to the board to overturn this.
Everyone here as well as any recreational fisherman who actually cares about Striped Bass should attend their local meeting when it happens.
