Well if lowering the bag limit doesn't help then increasing it shouldn't hurt. Maybe we should all just take the night off.

If the average is lowered, than maybe they would extend the season and give the party boats their winter fishery back. Give and take.

Do you really want to pay $200 for an offshore seabass trip??? for 5or 10 fish. get real!!!

Only the Dauntless and Paramount and sometimes the Angler on fridays. Those are the only ones I can think of. Seabass are basically a fluke trip bycatch.

Some statement - incorrect!

As far as the nexus of NJFishing, for those of us who love to catch and find seabass wonderful to eat, there are quite a few charter/6-packs that target seabass, and there is a good following of people who who want to go and essentially pay double for a seat, compared to a PB. Besides great knowledge of wrecks and rough bottom that hold a lot of seabass, these boats can cover far more water in a day finding them for their patrons than a PB. You know their names from posts on here.

From BI south to Cape May these are many very good PB targeting seabass in the summer, and for the less frugal, some other very good charter operations.

I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very(fishing ) freedom that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way
