Sal you are a very passionate man, good for you!
I never bashed any state, you really need to take a breath and read what I am saying, all I am stating are my views with some facts as well. I said NY doesn't allow Them in NY waters, you should re-read what I wrote I quoted it for you.
Sal My info is very much in order, like I said take a few deep breaths and read what I wrote.
You have seen all this stuff because your state allows it. You see that is a fact, not an opinion.
NY saw a long time ago what commercial fishing with nets does to fish stocks, NJ well they will learn soon enough.
This isn't a NY vs NJ thing this is about us as fishermen coming together to fight for our right to sustainable fishing and actually getting useful numbers to work with, and models to calculate said numbers.
You want it to be a NY vs NJ thing I get it, thats why you keep bringing that point up. I want all fishermen from our waters to come together so we have a voice. I see the big picture, not the small one where people like to be isolationists and say we know whats good for us in our state and keep fishermen divided.
You need to start thinking about the future of our fishing and not your own state only because you will suffer what NY went through for years only you will lose a hell of a lot more boats, thats a fact.
United we stand! Divided we fall... You are falling for the ploy to get fishermen divided, don't.
