What is the difference between SMCA and SMR?
What I could gather is that receiving an SMR is the kiss of death; nothing can be touched. The SMCA is where is gets gray. Can you still hook and line fish in a SMCA or is it one of those "I call it as I see it" designations or does each SMCA have its own unique regulations? Thanks, Kevin |

Smr = no fishing at all
smca= some fishing maybe ok. They all have different rules. The smca in south lj allows pelagics by h&l. The swami one bans all h&l fishing.

Thanks for this information.
It confirms what I gathered regarding the SMCA: It is left vague so that you never know if you will be breaking the law and is open to interpretation (by the enforcing parties, not us). I have dealt with the AQMD on VOC emissions and they operate the same way; pay the fine and we will get back to you later if we were in error Kevin |

Does anyone know if they plan on letting us fish north of Scripps Pier in the SMCA?

Well shit... that sucks. Hey, sharks eat yellowtail, that means it is bait, right.

"I was fishing for Makos, using yellowtail as bait. Ergo, I needed to make bait...that's all I was doing." After all, someone did once catch a YT on a sabiki... I likes, I likes...
