My thoughts exactly. When I got the email I got very irritated. This is absolute crap what they're doing with managing our shrimp fishery. Something really wrong is going on. If you notice they purposefully don't post the creel reports for any shrimping boats at the Everett Ramp on either the 1st or the 5th.

There's no doubt in my mind there was less pots and boats in area 8 on the opener and certainly less on the 5th. Yet we get one less day this year than last. What a flat out crock.

Guess the tribes decided we had enough for this year. Must have interfered with the gazillion crab pots they put out last week.
