Have read on other forums where the serious fishermen are pissed that NJ is still allowed to keep 3 and everyone else has harsher limits except for the Chesapeake. I don't know if he is solely responsible for that. When you have a guy who keeps standing out in front saying "nothing at all wrong with striped bass" over and over, you have to wonder what is his motivation behind doing it. And if it is shown in the end that the science overestimated the population, I think Fote is a part of the problem, not the solution.
