Those are...guesstimates
If you look at the numbers.. the dead comm discards are close to the actual comm kill. Here is an idea...Why not sell the what was discarded and stop comm landings and save 800K fish and still keep your precious fish in the fish markets. The fact they know they are killing 6-800K of fish per year just as a by-catch discard makes me sick. Why are we discarding ANYTHING?
What about the unreported catch? You know what is sold in the black market? I would bet that number meets or exceeds the legitimate catch
