To place a financial burden such as this on a VERY weak and juvenile industry such as sport fishing will sound it's death knell; all under the guise of protecting the environment. The idiot that proposed this ridiculous law(under Minister Frank Pons' ageis, no doubt) is only half as stupid as the government that passed it.
The big news in the past several weeks has been the mega-marina in Punta Cana, the loosening of the Marina de Guerre's antiquated cruising restrictions and other promotion of the marine industry.

And now this.

This is a classic example of aiming at the moon, and shooting yourself in the toe.
