Re: 2014 Fluke Regulations
I was going to start a thread titled "most innovative ways to hide your fluke".
Then I realized most of my friends on here would think I was talking about banging a chick and the responses would just get out of hand !!!!!! JJ |

Re: 2014 Fluke Regulations
This sort of stuff is happening more and more. The States are losing there autonomy and the Federal Government gains more power to control things.
Obama Care, No Child Left Behind and now Common Core. You as a State either get in line with the federal mandates or you lose federal funding and your state is left out in the cold. We all know that the higher up the ladder decisions are made the less likely it is that the will of the people will be served. The bureaucrats in Washington are too far removed and out of touch from all of us. Their decisions are made to serve their own agendas be it party affiliation, ego, money, power, political favor or all the above. Why can't we the people vote on important matters? It's not like many years ago when time and distance to Washington played a role. We had to elect and send representatives from each state to Washington to represent our interests. We now have the Internet why not let us vote on these matters? The answer is a simple one...The politicians would loose their power an no one who makes a living in politics is going to have that.

What I can tell you is this, we need to come together on this issues, if we don't we are going to get the royal screwing like you won't believe. I will bet the next order of business for them is TOG. You guys have a great reef, but you still allow roller gear on them and fish pots, those have to go, and you need to fight hard I mean really hard for it to go, or they will win. Is it doom and gloom, no this coast wide limit will go on for a few years and then I feel as though if we don't do anything the regulations will get worse. I am sure some in your state will still say they have more fishermen then NY and simply put that isn't true. Long Island alone has more people living on it than the whole state of NJ. I still want unity amongst fishermen, not this our state will do what our state wants, because as you saw and I see, your state didn't fair too well. |

Yes Obama Voters, Bush Voters, and so on. Gerry fishermen who fish with rod and reel, need to come together and push back hard. If you vote on things they will just give you what they want you to vote on, you know like what happened when the knuckleheads in South Jersey were crying over a 1/2 an inch, well they threw away 3 fish for a half an inch, then this year, because they got what they wanted, now they upped it back to 18" and now you lost another fish on top of that. Yeah please I don't want morons voting anymore because they outnumber people who actually think. |

Re: 2014 Fluke Regulations
Long Island 7.687 million + the other 3 boroughs and you roughly get 12 million people...
New Jersey 8.865 million (2012) Now I left out some city boroughs even though there are many fishing boats both private and head boats if I added them in you would be in real trouble. Last edited by RussA; 02-05-2014 at 08:16 PM.. |

Re: 2014 Fluke Regulations
Don't forget Queens, but just try and tell someone from Brooklyn or Queens that they live on Long Island.
This is all part of the trend to commodify natural resources that has been ongoing for many decades. For example, The Bureau of Land Management leases million of acres of "public" land to mining and oil interests who proceed to rape, pillage and pollute "our" land then smile at us as they sell "our" natural resources back to us at a large profit. I think this is what's slowly happening here and elsewhere. There are people in the world who only see dollar signs and unfortunately our culture in America idolizes money above all else and so we have the best government money can buy. Such a pity. |
