This website is specifically designed to counteract what I believe is "Political Correctness" run a muck. The ever increasing size limits and shortened seasons have caused excessive hardship on the fisherman and all the businesses that are associated with it. The bureaucrats in the National Marine Fisheries Department could care less about any information supplied by fisherman, and consider any input as merely "anecdotal."

We are extremely close to the end of recreational fluke fishing in the northeast. The idiotic twenty one inch size limit in New York waters, along with the new fee for getting a line wet, and only being able to keep two fish is as close as anyone can get to a moratorium. New jersey is not far behind with an eighteen inch size limit and good luck trying to get a young kid interested in fishing when you keep telling him, or her, to throw back good size edible fish.

It is very important to understand when fishing in North Jersey waters this year that if you catch any "keepers," in New Jersey waters and you just happen to drift into New York waters, the fish police will be all over you and your boat faster than a pirate from Somalia.

I can't possibly, in this introduction, list all my grievances but will attempt to in the future. It is my hope that by selling these, 'Hook 'Em and Hack 'Em ' shirts, disgruntled fisherman from all over will be able to demonstrate that we are fed up and demand a more common sense approach. We also need to rein in the "Environmental Nazi" influence on so called Fisheries experts.

We hope you like the shirts and we will provide some recipes and a slide show on how to properly fillet a fluke..... NO matter what the size!
