I drove out there today to look around, and talked to a couple regulars who were still lamenting the same fact that I harp on ... too many people keeping too many undersized fish. It happened right through December.
I talked to one guy who told me of a group (4)of folks he saw keep around 100 short drum out there between Christmas and New Years.
They don't keep them when I'm out there because they see me tagging the fish for VMRC, but I've been told as soon as I leave it's Open Season on Illegal Harvesting.
I've seen the rangers and I know they're around, but the number of illegally kept fish there in December alone probably rivals anything you guys see at Lynnhaven in the season.
THROW MORE BACK ... PHONE THE POLICE ON THE CHEATERS AND SCOFFLAWS
