We're our own worst enemy when it comes to fair and balanced regulations relating to saltwater fisheries. This thread, in itself, bears witness to the fact that very few on this site have the right to complain about regulations for any stock going because quite frankly most don't care enough and expect everyone else to do the work which is a formula for failure. We have the numbers but we fail repeatedly to utilize that leverage, maybe the only leverage we have.
Yeah very disappointing that there were only 59 comments submitted and by the looks of it all 59 were from us. Also interesting to note that all the other fisheries that comments were due for there was only 1...

Good news is with all but 1, our comments should raise some eyebrows. Bad new is a lot of people sit on the sides and rather then do something, they do nothing.

Thanks for all here who supported this effort. Still lots of work to be done and we could sure use more hands on deck..
