I have been in contact with his office pretty frequently. I pleaded with him to go and meet with Mr. Ross. I told him who to speak with to become informed. It was all teed up for him. All he had to do was show up. So, yes other than signing a letter that someone else wrote, I m confident he didn't meet with Mr. Ross. In addition, last night I received a call from his office and they told me and I quote "there is nothing he can do to help you". What did his office tell you?

Re: Looks like we should have taken 3 @ 19"
3 @ 19" is not acceptable ...3 @ 18 is not acceptable! 5 @ 18" was better 8 @ 17" even better. They are chipping away at us. Do I want to keep more fish than I can eat....No! But I do want to bring some fish home. I say recreational fisherman should consider somehow joining forces with the NRA then we will have lobbying power. It would benefit both parties. Time to make a stand. While we can!

Re: Looks like we should have taken 3 @ 19"
What are the consequences of being out of compliance?

Re: Looks like we should have taken 3 @ 19"
This is not about managing the species but managing the anglers who target them out of existence. They know exactly what they are doing. How many party boats and charter boats will call it quits after this season under the proposed 3 fish at 18 inches? What are they going to fish for after Sept. 4th? Once the boats, marina, tackle stores call it quits they are not coming back. I'd love to be a fly on the wall at one of these ASMFC meetings when it is just those pricks talking amongst themselves and patting themselves on the back for slowly and systematically destroying the recreational fishery.
