I would agree with Esquire and others that have commented here. In PA there are a number of primo waters that are fairly restrictive, but not overly so considering their location and reputation. I wouldn't want to see them restricted even further as it would really limit the people that would fish it. I don't think I would be interested in regulations such as the above, but maybe that's the point. What was is Oscar Wilde (or was it Groucho) said, "I wouldn't want to be a member of any club that would accept me" LOL
Good Tying and Good Fishing!
