How will paying for a permit to catch the current size fish help to meet a ridiculously calculated quota that they want to reduce??? IMO, this is a lead in to paying for fishing or licensing as required in other states....my .02
before this survey came out, a RUMOR was heard about a pay for play permit coming out. A different version of CATCH SHARES , where you pay for what you take from the resource.
The question about what your yearly salary is BS too. who cares how much a fisherman makes.
