Dear Marine Resource Commissioners,
I encourage your support of the petition filed by Bill Dunn on 7/6/23. This will have economic
benefit to not just recreational fishermen, but to the thousands of other businesses and job
impacted by recreation fishing along the Atlantic Coast. As a part-time guide in Massachusetts, my personal livlihood has been severely and negatively impacted
by the poor class years of striped bass over the last decade or two. These fish and a regional, major economy need your help in a critically timely fashion. now.
Thank you for your support and thoughtful consideration.
