I am sort of hoping (vain hope, I know) that with the $9 billion budget shortfall and all, they will just say, ah heck, go fish wherever and whenever you want to, no rules, just be nice, you know, sort of the C-Brat fishing regs! I just don't see how they can afford to continue the arcane season and limit setting practices!
It'll be easy, Pat. They'll threaten that they can't fund "children, the poor, education etc...". The media will report it without question and the uneducated public will eat it up. They'll then say the only way to "solve it" will be MORE TAXES (not reduced spending), which the media will report and the uneducated public will buy in to. Wait...aren't they doing that ALREADY? :roll:
Thirty pages of regs. Imagine. :? I've got so much to learn about the boat and boating that fishing will be low on the list for now. And with 30 pages of regs, that sounds like a good idea for now.
Well the good new is that we are getting several longer seasons and more limits then in the past. A lot or this , and I mean all, is due to PSA and the CCA. I belong to both and if you fish or crab,shrimp then you should too. We did lose some of the halibut season from last year but I will still be going out.
