Support of license

[beachwalker]

Thanks Sweetie,

I appreciate the response and get the humor , but I think (and hope) that you are missing my point.

I am in favor of better fisheries management. If that takes a fee, and a licensing process, than so be it. I live in Massachusetts. I will contribute to any efforts to control and accpet or defeat proposals here and elsewhere.

It is HOW they are wriiten that needs to be monitored. Would you pay a fee if it meant that some prime, crowded fishing spots were monitored for license compliancy and gave you more of a chance of hitting some fish ? If it meant that the pressure on fishing was relieved, even slightly ? If it meant that, down the road there was the potential to introduce a management policy that was forward thinking (or at least CURRENT) and WE contributed to it through information and NOT just money ?

A VERY utopian idea but, I feel, worth thinking about.

Just wait how many guys pipe in trying to pay your license.

Thanks for the opinion, it is a good one.
