I started watching it... between the commercials and the dramatization..it just got too depressing.... I recall the many years that we jigged codfish in the mouth of the river most of the winter when the weather was conducive to launching a 16' aluminum skiff and anytime you wanted a codfish fish dinner you could scare up enough for a meal or two from the beach anytime you had an early evening high tide...now... we can't even keep 1....if it is as bad as they say... all fishing should be stopped. Not just the recreational sector.. I threw back a lot of codfish last year while haddock fishing...the inshore waters in May and early June had cod outnumber haddock about 5:1... until the draggers came through...then there were only whiting and mud hake.
