And as my wife is now turned onto fishing (she caught at least 40 of the 73
perch yesterday) I have a plan...............to move to a 23 foot walk
around with a small cuddy.

Why would anyone want 73 perch. Fishing is a great past time. One only
needs a feed.
if you want to rape the seabed go by this.

Have you ever been yellow perch fishing on Lake Erie? Do you know their
size and what the limit is/day? Obviously not.

But don't fret............very last fish will be eaten..........trust me.

Here is one of my favorites...

I just returned from the Pacific Fishery Management Council meetings in
Foster City, Cal. One of the biggies on the agenda is setting up an
Individual Quota system for boats like this. This doesn't sound too
difficult until you start to get into specifics.
The catchers want all the permits among themselves so they can sell to any
processor that gives the best price. The processors are demanding up to 50%
of the permits for themselves so they can control prices and make the
catchers work for them.
To further complicate matters, the govmint passed a law call the American
Fisheries Act (AFA). This act says Alaskan pollock fishers must be allowed
to move south to fish whiting and meanwhile, the council must write
regulations to prevent the pollock fishermen from impacting the whiting
fishery!
This has been going on for some years now and the council seems to be
incapable of resolving anything as the council is made up of fishermen from
these competing industries!
Govmint in inaction is something to behold.

A friend of mine has a 22' Grady White SeaFarer..........I really like
that boat. I have also seen a 23' Pro-line WA that I like.

Anchoring and moving about on the boat will also be easier, especially for
her.

I now have all winter to start selling her on the idea!

What are some dependable brands in the walk around market?



Yet another thread with good intentions and boating related sent down the
tubes thanks to a couple of troublemakers.
