Among the management options on the table for striped bass at next week’s ASMFC Striped Bass Management Board meeting is a no-target season that, as OTW Publisher Chris Megan said in his comment, would cause significant economic impact to for-hire captains, the boating industry, gear manufacturers, tackle shops, and tourism.

Read more about the proposed management options for stripers, and the full comment OTW is sending to ASMFC here: https://onthewater.com/no-target-fishing-closures-on-the-table-for-striped-bass-anglers
