Long-time Barnegat Light fishing family calls it quits
I'm sure you guys have heard by now that the Eble family has decided to sell their party boat the Doris Mae IV and get out. They will be missed. Here's a short interview with Capt. Charlie Eble on his reasons for getting out.

Re: Long-time Barnegat Light fishing family calls it quits
Sad to see anyone leave this industry, especially a local family run business that has been around as long as they have.
If it's not the regs, it's the cost of doing business. Combine that with the wacko exteme enviornmentalists/activists who want to convince kids it's inhumane to fish for sport, and you can see why the recreational fishing industry is in the shape it is. Up to us all to get kids interested in fishing to keep this great sport of ours alive as well as patronize the local businesses and fishing organizations that support us.

Re: Long-time Barnegat Light fishing family calls it quits
This is really sad and yes Capt Ron it may not be the last, Glad Capt Jeff who is a great capt got a great boat but the message here sucks, As a "low level" Fishermen (I have had my share but many are much better) I cant accept the fact that boats like this have to Sell out. This is the exact reason I got involved, ran many fundraiser trips and really tried to understand fishery management, I have to admit I don't. It all sucks. Fishermen / women don't really get involved, no one gets really pissed enough.
When we do a little it all goes to worthless politicians that may or may not support us. Sick of it all as I am sure Capt Ron, Capt Tony Bogan, Capt Adam Nowalsky are but yet they keep fighting, Big Thanks to all of you God damit I have had it, I marched, I raised money , I worked the off season shows, I tried but until ALL fishermen get involved we will go down
