Not saying the feds are right, but even a broken clock is right twice a day
Lets talk once the water warms up and the bait fish move in. Look at all the Cod, Winter Flounder and Ling being caught... They are all cold water fish and usually gone this time of year.
Any way you cut it, what they are doing right now isn't working for the fish or the fishermen. Time for some drastic changes.
Point in case, according to them Sea Bass are fully rebuilt yet we are facing a quota reduction?? Heck, you can hardly drop down a piece of squid or clam and not catch one.
