Re: Revised Sea Bass in Feb Poll
Sea bass biomass is well over 200% of its sustainable level so we should not loose any of the states quota.
In Florida, boats can fish in federal waters, catch what ever the federal limits allows, and transit back through state waters back to their port (as long as fishing rods are stowed and the boat does not stop) without any penalties regardless of the state regulations. This is allowed and controlled by their state regulatory agency. Why can't we pressure the NJ DEP to allow us to do the same? The impact on the industry would be nothing but positive.
