The article is confusing. It says that the tuna and bass fishermen are worried about the bycatch, and then it goes on to list bycatch as cod, flounder and etc. I would think that the tuna and the bass are feeding on the atlantic herring and the river herring? I know that there is a serious lack of both species where I fish (LIS). I am glad that they are at least being looked into. I hear that the tuna are further and further out, due to lack of bait like herring. Why don't they just cut back on the herring fishery for a while and see if the other fisheries improve (I bet they will)....
