Default Bluefish regs not looking good for next year
And the hits keep on coming. Just received this notice from the RFA. A freaking disaster.

Mid-Atlantic Council just voted to reduce bluefish bag limit to 3 for shore and private anglers and 5 for for hire sector. All based on flawed MRIP data butting up against ACLS which have no place in fisheries management for the recreational sector. ACLS are a Commercial tool not designed for a trending regime like MRIP. FEDS are out of control and we cant get other groups on board to fight this insanity.
