Dear Ms Kurkul:
Please be advised that the Jersey Coast Anglers Association supports the black sea bass regulations that the ASMFC voted on and approved at the May 5th meeting. The seasons are May 22 –October 11 and November 1 to December 31. There will also be a 12.5 inch minimum size and a 25 fish bag limit. This is a 26% reduction which is higher than the 21% required. We want you to implement the same regulations in the EEZ.
Mark Taylor
JCAA President
