2015 Bass regulations: GET ON THE PHONE/WRITE AN EMAIL!

[JBird]

Well, I just got off the horn with the NJ Fish and Wildlife so this is straight from the horse's mouth.
We are under 2014 rules UNTIL THE GOVERNOR SIGNS THE NEW REGS INTO LAW. There may be a time limit where it's enacted automatically but they were unsure of this.
The changes are, as many already know, 1 @ 28"-43" and 1 43" or bigger.
THE BONUS PROGRAM WILL BE DEAD IN THE WATER UNTIL SEPT. 1ST 2015 after which we will allowed a bonus tag slot fish 24"-under 28".

So I called the governors office, spoke to an aid and requested that Mr. Christie DELAY AS LONG AS POSSIBLE THE SIGNING OF THIS LAW because it will be terrible for our business.
If we can collectively make enough noise perhaps we can delay the rule changes long enough to get most of the Spring season under our belt before we are forced into what basically amounts to a 1 fish limit.
Am I pissing up a rope? Perhaps, but in the immortal words of R.P. MacMurphy, "I tried, though. Goddammit, I sure as hell did that much, now, didn't I?"
