NEWSFLASH- CAPE COD CANAL CLOSED TO COMMERCIAL STRIPER FISHING

In a stunning development, the Cape Cod Canal was closed today to commercial striper fishing. This is a place that saw a lot of shore commercial fishermen targeting stripers in the last few years because it was one of the few shore spots that had lots of big fish. This move had been rumored since March, but most of us doubted it would happen.
The complete story can be found HERE. Note that the comments at the end of the story are quite heated on both sides as this is sure to touch off a firestorm between commercial fishermen and recreational fishermen with property owners in the mix. Lots of passion on all sides.
