To the Editor:
There is a very disturbed surf fisherman (and I use the “fish” term only for descriptive purposes) on LBI.
I walk the beach of Barnegat Light every morning. Lately, I have been seeing something very disturbing. Some surf fisherman (I haven’t caught him/her yet, seems to fish at night or perhaps very early) is catching sand sharks, I guess inadvertently while stalking something more macho. And instead of throwing them back, this person is killing them and leaving them on the beach to die.
