Sea Bass go off shore and spawn in the winter along with porgies??? No more off shore PB fishing. We all want to protect the stocks and protect the future of all species but at what cost? If we do what you want there would be no need for your charter boat or any for hire boat and who would buy a private boat??? Comments welcome but let all o0f us keep them civil! We are all entitled to our opinion and this one is just mine. Other than that it is 82degrees and sunny here in Florida LOL

Wish it was 82 here Sal , tired of winter already .
I totally understand we want to fish when a species is here ,. And for us many of those are catchable only in the window they are spawning . So of course we want to fish .
.
But it also is when those fish ball up the most and are easiest to hurt .
.
I always would have liked to see striped bass a C/R fishery until May 1. By that time most eggs would be dropped .
Sure those same fish could be caught full of eggs in the fall .
But when they are within days of dropping millions of eggs it just makes no sense to be killing them by the thousands .
