It must not be in the best interest of the rec fishing clubs to want a precise number to their catch of Striped Bass.
If a precise number was in their best interest, they would have been screaming for an accounting years ago.
It makes better sense to refute ASMFC numbers as being to high and then, behind the scenes, try to softly stick the knife in to other user groups and attempt to take their quotas.
Maryland fishing clubs are attempting to try and take away mine, as well as others living with their back door maneuvers. I hope they are not too surprised when a few things come back to bit them in the a$$.
