Well I am not going to get into a fight here. We all have are own belives.
I no that all the fish move in from off shore, but I feel that they have there own areas some how. How else do you explain that were there use to be tons of fish in a off shore area that was over fished and now there is none?? But they still come into the inshore areas??
How do the herrin no what river to come back to after a couple of years at sea??How do the fish no to come back to the same areas year after year?? So yes I belive that there is two fisherys and after one was destroyed, why destroy yet another fishery??
We should be learning by are mistakes!!
I am not just picking on the dragers!! All have to take some responsablity!!
The poor rec. guy puts more into the ecomany and gets 7 fish at 16 1/2". While the dragers and hook guys are allowed 300# and 200# a day at 14" fish.
By there own emission at a DMF hearing the dragers tryed to get the hook and line guys cut down to 10% of the quota stating that over the years that is all they had caught.
By doing this they admit to catching 90% and take the blame IMO to making the fishery what it is today!! \
We could go back and forth all day with who is to and who is not to blame!! Tghe only way to fix it is to all work toghter to make the fishery great again andfor are Kids and theres! And it isn't going to happen when everyone is pined against each other!!
Ok there is my rant!! I will quite now
