    Default Help Get Rid of Maryland Gill Netters

    Stripers Forever members - anglers in Maryland have had enough of gill nets in Chesapeake Bay - amen to that - and have put together an online petition to abolish them for presentation to MD officials. They have also started a manual version and secured over 800 signatures at a fishing show in MD this past weekend. There are some good people behind this and they've asked us to urge our members to sign this petition. Getting rid of these indiscriminate killers would also get us one step closer to game fish status for striped bass in Chesapeake Bay. Let's put a few thousand signatures on this petition. It doesn't matter what state you are from, striped bass don't pay any attention to state lines. Thank you. Brad Burns

    Did it.
    Now who is going to start a petition to sink the bunker boats? I would pay to see that happen, or if they put them out of business and wanted to pay them parity, I would contribute.

    I signed, and wanted to thank Finchaser for posting this.

    It's about as painless as can be, and only takes a minute or so. I hope others will consider signing as well. If you want to do something about gill netting, here is your chance.
