O.K. so many years ago ( yes i consider myself a old timer, i am old) we used to get a sheet of paper from the D.E.C. that pertained to fin clipped fish. They would tell us, what fish were clipped, where, and the year they did it. I guess that was when they must have CARED. Now we get NOTHING! I would love to get that info once again. The reason behind all of this was to see what we catching. Oh yea, they used to mail them to me. Now i have to research and look up on this computer what the hell i am catching with the clipped fins, to get the info to tell my clients who ask and that is IF i can find it. REALLY?????? I hope somebody from the D.E.C. pipes in.
