The rules prtecting spiny doggies are there because of a lawsuit brought byt he green groups against NMFS. NMFS lost. All of the science, both Candain and U.S. says that the population of breeding females is way down. But they draggers do concentrate on the females which are larger. During most of the year the schools are almost exclusively either male or female. I wish that NMFS would permit commercial fishng on the males.
