Striped Bass Slot

[Broad Bill]

Look no further. Combine this debacle with the impact of harvesting that many filter feeding menhaden has on increased levels of pollution in Chesapeake Bay and the powers to be will have their answer for the ongoing decline in recruitment and the overall biomass population. Money grab by Virginia or VMRC. And every other Mid-Atlantic state and all recreational anglers and for hire interests suffer the consequences of their greed. Close the bay to all striper fishing for three years and kick Cooke Inc. or Omega Protein out permanently. Bass need protection from the year round pressure they are subjected to and like every fishery the spawn needs to be protected.
