Re: Sea Bass Update 3/5/13
Why don't they just open it 2-3 weeks later, and give us that time at the back end? protect the spawn. last year when they opened it May 25 (I think I recall the date), and for 3 more weeks, the females had not spawned. The fish we were catching from No. Jersey to Cape May were full of roe, bulging. And there consistently were limits up and down the NJ coast with a majority unspawned females.
Where are the marine biologists who supposed to know these things? This is basic stuff. No wonder the regulators get no respect.
