Striped Bass Bonus Permit Question

[Pfishingruven]

Can someone confirm this for me.  I was asked this the other day and when I gave the person the answer, they told me they thought I was wrong.  After looking up the information on the State website, I can see where the confusion may have come from.

Striped Bass Bonus Permits are $2.00 and good for 1 additional fish over 28", per day, per angler.  After you have used your permit, you must report the information and then purchase a new permit for $2.00 more dollars if you want another permit.  The permit isn't good for the entire season, correct?  The person was telling me they just report the fish and then reprint the Bonus Permit, but I think each permit is numbered and only valid for one fish?  I don't know why they allow the permit to be reprinted if it can only be used once and I think that is where the confusion is coming from.  I also think the statement that, if you lose the permit, it costs $2.00 to reprint it for you.  It makes it sound like it is a yearly permit, like a yearly license, instead of a 1 time permit.

Please correct me if I am wrong!

Thanks

The permit is good for the season if you do not use it.

Once it is used you must report the fish and then pay $2.00 for processing. You can only use 1 permit a day.

Never a stupid question .

It is for saltwater...ohhh how they like to confuse you.  Fishing Regs are like Stereo Instructions !

[IrishAyes]

Yeah, the regs are terrible to try to keep track of. BTW can someone stop by tonight and set the clock on my VCR? It's been wrong since the time change last week. 

[Bucktail]

VCR?  Would you like me to wind up your Victrola for you too?

 

[IrishAyes]

Would you?!?!?! That would be great. Maybe you can get the tape out of my 8-track system in my car too!
