Is this a Joke? While we are being told the stocks are rebuilt, there is no over fishing and over fishing hasn't occurred, now they want to cut the take!
I call BS!
When the Sexting studies were done with Rutgers and the data proved that just about "ALL" 18 inch fish and over were females, the data was tossed in the trash only because certain organizations could'nt put their stamp on it, yet they donated NO money to the study!! 3 years of work down the toilet, but we are forced to take 18 inch fish and kill the breeders, same as the Big Bass (but that's another story).
While I get checks every other day from hard working people who are fishermen and believe in the cause, some as much as $500 to fight the BS, I have not received a dime from any of the people who's lives depend on this! Sit back and watch as our boats and businesses Rot at the dock! Not the way or the way I'm going out.
Take away your guns, take away your voice, this is AMERICA people, have we forgotten that....WTF.

Sorry to piss off my Brothers (Gregg, Tony, Dave, Nick, Willie, Bob and all the others) who have been fighting so hard, but I can't keep it in any longer....Tiered of fighting when no-one has my back.
3 Scotch night for sure!
