This sounds like a commercial fisherman's responce. It is one sided. The side of the recreational fisherman. Look at Florida. Would it make sense to have a commercial fishery for snook? They protect their snook like gold. However you still can fish for them'keep them and eat them. It is true that the recreational angler harvests more fish than the commercial guys,but the commercial guys kill about 100,000 fish a year 34" and above in Massachusetts . Let the commercial guys switch to guiding and we will have the best of both worlds.
