With all due respect I am not sure why this was posted in the first place. Those involved in Fisheries management and I am sure most if not all Party Boat Captains knew back in Dec 2012 that there would be NO Winter Seabass for Jan / Feb 2014.
This is no surprise and NOT new news. In my opinion posts like this just detract from the effort and fire up the masses for something that was already set back in 2012. That is why there is no formal announcements or breaking news out there. They didn't take anything away that wasn't already gone in 2012. Just sayin!
