Subject: FW: ASMFC Atlantic Striped Bass Board Approves Addendum III Without Reductions in Fishery Removals: New Work Group Planned to Address Long-Term Management and Stock Concerns
Good afternoon,
I just wanted to share this news summary from the Atlantic States Marine Fisheries Commission regarding the striped bass board meeting.
The board decided not to move forward with reductions in fishery removals and thus there will be no regulation changes this spring.
Thank you to everyone that participated in the public hearings or sent comments. Let me know if have any questions or comments.
