The NY Dept. of Environmental Protection passed along the following information about a change in cod regulations:
The Atlantic Cod fishing regulations have been updated to match federal fishing regulations. Starting today, June 12, 2024, the minimum size length has been updated from 21 inches to 23 inches, the possession limit has been decreased from 10 fish per day to 5 fish per day, and the open season has been shortened from all year to September 1 – May 31.
Capt. Ron Santee Jr. ended up well with today’s sea bass fishing, but it wasn’t easy as the southerly wind dropped the water temperature and slowed the bite everywhere he went.
The forecast is for north winds at 10-15 knots before dropping to 5-10in the afternoon –which should change that problem.
As noted in this morning’s blog, there’s actually one more day left in the Big Rock, I’ll do a blog on today’s results after the scales close tonight.
