Thanks as always. It's a joke with these clowns. One minute there saying one thing, the next another. I'm assuming there will be no Jan-Feb opening next year? There a f%%%%%ing joke.

I know one thing for sure......Nobody I know caught a lot of sea bass during last summers season.

Be careful when you release those little "sea Kittens" Tony. Those dogfish need something to eat.
Didn't you read the signs the PETA girls were carrying at the March?
"Try to relate, to "who's" on your plate!

The best moment of the march was your brother telling them that their signs were "grammatically wrong"

The New Jersey representatives, Tom Fote, Adam Nowalski, and Pete Himchak presented our case very well and as a result we will probably have to cut our season short by just a couple weeks rather than a longer period of time. Our state is already working on new proposals that will have to be voted on at an NJMFC meeting.

Someone should have definitely tried to get a feel or an old fashion from them in exchange for a promise to quit fishing and become a vegan.

Thanks for posting this. Found out at the rally in DC last week that things would be changing but did not know the day of the conference call at that time.

Time will tell what we actually end up with.

Every year it is a shell game, give a little here, take a bit there.

I see NO end in sight.
