Easy Guys...
There is No BAN on CONICAL Nets planned...or...a Seasonal Limit in the near future. "The sky is not falling"!
These items are not included in the proposed reg package...they are only included in the Lobster FMP appendix. I'm sorry...I get so involved with the process that I forget most folks have no real idea about what is going on with the F & W Department and the F & G Commission and the proposed regs or the MPA's.
The two non-concensus items were added to the appendix so that They Could Be Revisited in Future LAC or Stakeholder Meetings.
This is a reason to stay vigilant on all that the Department and the Commission do, and please return your lobster report cards so that we can use that data to protect our fishing rights.
Sarge...did you buy a fishing license this year?
A simple yes or no please, before we talk about "stones" and the Constitution.
I predict Darkhorse is wrong...at least in my lifetime...although apathy and the uninformed may help us lose many battles along the way...!
