Eliminate Menhaden Catching in the Chesapeake Bay
 

I have been fishing in the Bay for over 50 years. As a kid, the schools of menhaden on my little creek covered the entire creek in the summer. Now I see one or no schools of menhaden most of the summer. We must completely stop commercial fishing for menhaden in the Chesapeake Bay.
