I was just checking out your website. Are you guys really advocating roping off 5 X 5 square mile blocks of public gulf waters for 10 years at a time to grow fish?

| I think it would be awesome to have a area that fish could reproduce with out any pressure on them. Any Federal or State hunting land and some private land that I have been on have areas that are restricted just for this purpose. If it works on land I bet it will work in the water. Especially if it is a area that is nothing but sand and it becomes habitat everyone would be a winner.

| 5 sq miles aint much in the gulf. Doubt anyone would miss it for the period it was closed. Would yall survey the area to verify there were no private reefs in the area? It might be a sticky situation if someones secret honey hole happened to get overlooked and then fell inside the restricted area. Just curious.

That would be part of the plan, BUT if they have a spot there it is illegal and I drought they will bitch and really tell anyone, as the fine could be heavy.

It would be 2.5mi X 2 to = 5sq mi. The area we "want" to put it on has nothing but sand bottom and close in so that it can be policed.
Your numbers [5 X 5] would = 25sq mi. these a LOT of difference. [/quoteWould any fishing be allowed in the block (i.e. trolling)? How about diving? Would boats be allowed to pass through it? Who is going to police it?
