Long-time REGULATION STRAPPED Barnegat Light fishing family calls it quits

January 2, 2015 Mid Atlantic

The Eble family has made their last trip on the Doris Mae IV. The fishing family that has been a fixture in Barnegat Light for nearly 70 years has decided to pack in it. “I really wanted to stay in the business another five to 10 years but National Marine Fishery Service’s rules and regulations are killing us.

While it’s a fact that’s hardly ever acknowledged, the assumption in fisheries management is that if the population of a stock of fish isn’t at some arbitrary level, it’s because of too much fishing.
