This article hit home. Written by CCA's President, Patrick Murray. This guy nailed it. It's why I've recently renewed my membership for 3 years. I hope most will never keep the kayak fisherman down, ESPECIALLY OTHER KAYAKERS. We volunteer...we donate...we can't go very far, lol...we get abused by boaters (and sometimes shot at). Us kayakers are not the problem. Please give it a read and support this association if you can. Jim Kelley

Taking more than you can consume is up to you. But don't be butt hurt if others don't agree with your point of view. Recreational fishermen take 2% ? That is incorrect. Sportboats fall under recreational fishing, as do PB and spear fishermen. It all adds up.
