This makes me sick,
We have so many problems in the world that we cannot control. This one is easy, ban these boats from the bay and let Narragansett Bay get back to normal. All the money that was spent digging the overflow tunnel to protect the upperbay from sewage overflows , then we go and let this practice disturb the natural cycle in the bay.

All truth passes through three stages.
First, it is ridiculed.
Second, it is violently opposed.
Third, it is accepted as being self-evident.

The spotter planes are common practice in the herring fishery. Usually the governing body of the state oversees the operation but it is usually still a commercial spotter doing the job.
There is no reason to get angry with the DEM officers. There really is not much they can do with a boat on the water. On the other hand, that catch is weighed somewhere.
