Both of those are states that outlawed Commercial Striper fishing and reallocated that quota to the recreational sector by allowing a third fish (disgusting).
2 very good examples of eliminating commercial fishing not doing a GD thing in terms of reducing mortality.
Stripers Forever "forgets to mention" this when they show their little state by state graph.
Btw - as a charter boat, our business depends on a strong bass population. I'm in no way against limits and conservation that makes sense. But these Stripers Forever guys are barking up the wrong tree.
If they actually cared about the fish stocks and not their own personal agenda, they could put their time and significant funds into something that might have a positive effect, rather than this fools errand.
