Stripers Forever members – Representative Matt Patrick of Falmouth, MA has introduced The Striped Bass Conservation Bill, HD 245, now on the legislative docket in the Massachusetts House of Representatives. The docket can be viewed at this address http://www.mass.gov/.../186/docket_bill.htm; just scroll down to 245. The language of the bill and the reasons that we support the bill are posted on our website under General News at www.stripersforever.org.
Stripers Forever has retained one of Massachusetts’ top lobbying firms to help us pass this legislation, but we will need everyone’s support. Right now we are asking our members to take just a second and send Reprsentative Patrick an e-mail and in your own words thank him for taking this important step towards conserving striped bass and protecting the future of saltwater recreational angling for current and future generations of fishermen all up and down the East Coast. Here is Matt Patrick’s e-mail address: Rep.MatthewPatrick@hou.state.ma.us. All members of Stripers Forever should thank Representative Patrick. Striped Bass know no state boundaries, and the great number of breeding-age female stripers that are killed each year by the MA commercial fishery effect the fishing in all states along the striper's migratory path. It is very important, please do it right now while this information is in front of you.
