SAFMC, MAFMC and PFMAC fishing closures
I was just above the most recent information from South Atlantic fishery management Council. ? The SAFMC, headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, is one of eight regional boards of fishing in the United States. They are responsible for the conservation and management of stocks of the federal limit of 200 miles offshore from North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and East Florida to Key West.
Literally all species of grouper and Red Snapper are closed to fishing any ? mere season is scheduled to reopen in April ? Red snapper is closed indefinitely.
Now I see that they are meeting more "public input" to look at regular Dolphin (mahi mahi), wahoo and cobia.
If close season on thesis fish well let most fishermen to try even fish. ? that will continue to be seeking a closing down lower fisheries in an area from Cape Canaveral, Florida northward to Georgia.
Environmentalists, PETA and others are simply sitting back and watching with great joy to measure this is place. ? your anti-todo - including fishing - the programme is achieved without lifting a finger.
People, as he knew us - and as we know now - fishing literally it is regulated in oblivion.
Check ou the SAFMC website and refer to the programan public meetings in your area ? if you want to see a circus these people as they supposedly make our comments and suggestions to heart ? in fact, already they have a plan. They are simply trying to see if someone can shoot holes in it ? to date, not one of their plans for conservation - amendments - has changed from its original form as a result of any of these meetings I attended.
By the way, half (MAFMC) Atlantic and Pacific (PFMC) aren't different. ? that are rapidly closing fishing in their jurisdictions.
Here a question for you - when you leave from? Used ? will stop when they have closed all recreational fishing and limited commercial fishing for fish only. Agriculture ? bought a slab of just this last week-$ 16.95 pound...

North Carolina MFC votes to continue killing fish
Evidence of the Committee on Fisheries meeting Navy North Carolina ignored of low sacrifice streaked by trawlers and February, in my view, bias toward commercial fishing, voted to leave the trade industry of the trawler alone.
This is a joke in my mind that would ignore documented occurrences of huge striped bass kills fish due to the activity of the apparent trawler.
North Carolina still shows the extreme bias toward commercial fishing - industry once again my opinion - ? and has some of the most liberal rules of any State to fish commercially.

North Carolina MFC Votes to Continue Fish Slaughter
At its February meeting the North Carolina Marine Fisheries Commission ignored evidence of striped bass slaughter by trawlers and with its, in my opinion, bias toward commercial fishing, voted to leave the trawler commercial industry alone.
This is a travesty in my mind that they would ignore documented occurrences of huge striped bass fish kills because of apparent trawler activity.
North Carolina continues to show extreme bias toward the commercial fishing industry - once again my opinion -? and has some of the most liberal rules of any state for taking fish commercially.

SAFMC, MAFMC and PFMAC Fishing Closures
I was just going over the latest information from the South Atlantic Fisheries Management Council.? The SAFMC, headquartered in Charleston, South Carolina, is one of eight regional fishery management councils in the United States. They are responsible for the conservation and management of fish stocks within the federal 200-mile limit off the coasts of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and east Florida to Key West.
Literally all grouper species and red snapper are closed to any type of fishing.? Grouper season is scheduled to reopen in April.? Red snapper is closed indefinitely.
Now I see that they are holding more "public input" meetings to look at regulating dolphin (mahi mahi), wahoo and cobia.
If they close the season on theses fish it will pretty well stop most anglers from even attempting to fish.? They continue to pursue a total bottom fishing closure in an area from Cape Canaveral, Florida north to Georgia.
The environmentalists, PETA, and others are simply sitting back and watching with great joy as this takes place.? Their anti-everything - including fishing - agenda is being accomplished without them lifting a finger.
Folks, fishing as we knew it - and as we know it now - is literally being regulated into oblivion.
Check ou the SAFMC webpage and see when public meetings are scheduled in your area.? If you want to watch a circus, watch these people as they supposedly take our comments and suggestions to heart.? In reality, they already have a plan. They are simply trying to see if anyone can shoot holes in it.? To date, not one of their conservation plans - amendments - has changed from its original form as a result of any of these meetings that I have attended.
By the way, the Mid Atlantic (MAFMC) and Pacific (PFMC) are no different.? They are shutting down fisheries in their jurisdictions just as quickly.
Here's a question for you - when will it stop?? IMHO it will stop when they have completely closed all recreational fishing and limited commercial fishing to fish farming only.? I bought a slab of grouper this last week - $16.95 a pound...
Tackle Cleaning Tips
While cleaning your tackle you hear 'Sproiinggg!!' That's the sound that little tiny spring makes as it exits the reel you just opened up and it leaves no clue as to the proper location of that spring within the reel. All reels have them, and sometimes it seems the makers put the reel together just so these springs will jump out of place. And is it just coincidence that the springs are close to impossible to put back? Read more...

Closed season under the Black Sea in the South Atlantic
If they fished offshore North Carolina to the Florida Keys this week past and captured any black sea bass, they were fortunate. ?, but you do not plan to do South Atlantic fishery management Council (SAFMC) has done it once more - this time of closing, effective February 12, season low of the Black Sea until 1 June this year. ? applies to the Federal waters of 3 to 200 miles off the coast of again. ?.
Here is the situation in my back yard now: ? closed all harvest are spotted corvina, all varieties of grouper, snapper vermilion, snook and snapper ? red trip to offshore means burning much fuel and literally no fish to bring to the table.
Following close on the heels of all this are the pending changes from the SAFMC within bag and seasons for Dolphin (mahi mahi), wahoo and cobia.
Anti-fishing people and environmentalists are quietly from all this as a victory in his efforts to totally eliminate fishing in any form. ? If sit and regretted the situation without contact with their legislative staff to express their outrage, their fishing rights will be slowly and completely finished before their eyes.
Lift your team and begin to write and call NOW. ? fishing freedom future may depend on your call!

North Carolina's CCA seeks end to bottom trawling
In response to a rash of massive deaths striped bass along the coast, North Carolina in the CCA asked the Committee on fisheries marine CN (MFC) to eliminate trawling of any kind as an art of allowable fishing for striped bass. Incidents, photographed and recorded on video by sports fishermen in the area, were the result of business operations of trawls in waters of the State and the outrage has been up and down the East Coast. North Carolina's CCA requested decisive action at the meeting of MFC in mounds of pine, 10 and 11 February
