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.
