Default Re: ASMFC's Technical Committee rejects NJ's 2017 Fluke Proposal
NJ DEP Commission Martin signed into law the 3 fluke at 18" with a season from 5/25 -9/5. That applies to both state and federal water. Though the ASMFC fluke board found us out of compliance we expected this but a deal had been struck with the NMFS and we are not going to be shut down. Had we stayed with status quo (2016 regulations) in all likelihood we would have been shut down. If anything changes I will let you know. Paul Haertel JCAA Board Member/Past President
