I do Not Support the over harvesting of our bay resources
 

Omega, and others have continued to reduce the stocks within the bay to such low levels. The dolphins and other species are moving north into Maryland waters just to avoid their boats and find enough food to eat. Osprey and eagles were starving to death in their nests, because there aren’t enough food sources, the buy catch associated with these reduction fisheries also greatly diminishes, recreational fishing activities and options as well as impacts Charter businesses . There are less redfish there are less trout. There are less Cobia when you reduce our species.
