Your talking to a
"DEAF EAR!!!" talking to Diodotti!!!
He knows what is going on out there and not doing anything about it!!! He knows that they are throwing over thousands of pounds of fish per day when you take the dozen boats that go!!! Also they up grade, the small legal fish are discarded 1st!!! And you will never stop that!!! Most of the gill netters are done fishing by 9-10am and the enviromentals in most cases aren't out there to after the fact!!! And remember that none these boats have observers on them!!!
Last year the green police did bag a couple boats but didn't make an exsample out of them!!! The state should fine them heavy and take a boat or two then you will see a differance!!!!
Close the cod fishing down for everybody "commercial and recreational for 3-5 years and the fishery will be a bonanza like the striper fishery!!! A
"PLUS!!PLUS!!PLUS!!!" for everybody!!!
Pete, ask Austin about the discard!!!
Happy Holidays!!!
