JACKSONVILLE'S BELOVED NAVY, SCREWING YOU.

You'll need help I'm sure to figure this out, but here's the page from the "Federal Register", That now makes you, as a local fisherman, after 60 years, a potential threat to national security. And the parameters that steals away "more" shoreline that you CANNOT fish. Near the Mayport Navy Base.

JACKSONVILLE'S BELOVED NAVY, SCREWING YOU. -Restricted Areas and Danger Zone at Naval Station Mayport, FL

This doesn't include you're inability to fish areas around Blount Island,

Which is another area where YOU are a threat to national security. Even though there's fences, sensors, & cameras. Which of course You've paid for.
