And how many recs make up the rec side, Flyrod?

Is that an even number of recreational anglers vs. commercial fishermen?

I'm one man... you are one man. Our take should be equal.

Don't use fuzzy math to say that the rec take should equal the comm take. If there are 10,000 times more recs out there, or a 100,000 times or whatever, than the recs take should be 10,000 or a 100,000 times more.

One man = one vote
one man = one fish

The rec take vs comm take argument is weak. We hear it every time.

Greed is one man wanting more than another. A single comm angler wants more access to the resource than a single rec angler. That is greed.

How many million recreational anglers our out there? Versus how many thousand commercial fisherman?
