He (Mark Taylor) talked about the recent changes to weakfish and winter flounder and how Tom Fote fought to even get the 1 and 2 fish bag limits when the councils wanted total moratoriums, the recent press release from ASMFC that striped bass are not being overfished and overfishing is not occurring and that the commercial quota rollover was not approved.

He also spoke briefly about how anglers can help the cause by joining local clubs and getting more involved by going to meetings of the local clubs and to the public hearings by the various fishing councils.

He also said that if anyone has any questions about fisheries management, current legislation and like topics that they can check on the Jersey Coast Anglers Association website and or call or e-mail him or their office manager Sharon McKenna, e-mail addresses and phone numbers can be found on the Jersey Coast Anglers Association web site, www.jcaa.org.
