Re: New Legislation to remove gear from 99% of New Jersey's reef sites
[B][COLOR="Red"]No commercial fishing of lobster using lobster pots would be permitted in the designated areas from November 1 through December 15, and of other fish using fish pots from May 15 through October 1. The bill prohibits the recreational use of lobster pots in the designated areas.[COLOR="red"]
So in reading this more doesnt the bill ALLOW lobster pots to remain in the designated areas from Decmber 15th through the ENTIRE drifting season until the following November 1rst.
And allows fish pots to be on the selected sites from October 1 through the whole blackfish season until the following MAY
so in essense there still will be one type of pot on the reef ALL YEAR/
so this bill IS NOT getting enough done
