EP183: Accused of Nothing - The "No Targeting Nightmare" with Alan Battista
Alan Batista—a well-known striped bass angler, fishing author, and advocate from Maryland—joins the Guide Post to break down a recent run-in with enforcement that sparked serious questions about current fisheries policy. Alan was issued a ticket for allegedly targeting striped bass during a closed season despite doing nothing wrong. This episode dives deep into the reality of so-called “no-targeting” regulations: what they actually mean, how they’re enforced (or not), and why they represent a dangerous precedent for recreational anglers and the future of striper conservation. With firsthand experience, Alan sheds light on the confusion and contradictions in enforcement, and ASGA breaks down why these policies fail both fish and fishermen.A must-listen for anyone who fishes for striped bass—or cares about common sense in conservation.
