Now They all but shut down the cod for the big boats making it only 200 pounds a day and rolling closures that put our entire area off limits, temporarily, to all groundfishing.
Finally, what we've been asking for we got!
Keep the daggers from pounding the bank all winter and save what's left of our cod.
This could be a blessing in disguise.

My issue is more with the haddock... 100% increase for commercial and no increase for rec. in a few years they will say Haddock fishery is in collapse (hope that isn't the case but it seems like that's how it goes recently)
