And ban fishing off of Montauck to preserve white shark nursery.

Lobstering in LIS for Connecticut fishermen has been banned b/c of a devastating wasting disease of the lobster.

I feel for the fishermen whose lifeblood has been fishing for generations.

We fish recreationally off the coast of MA. In the last few years the restrictions on what we can catch, size and amount has made it a waste of time to put a rod in the water.
