Lets say a herring weighs at a high estimate of .5 lb per fish thats 3.6 million fish.that would equal 6,000 fisherman taking 600 per yr.I take close to that many wit another partner.their's maybe 100 of us doing the same in NJ.

Now everyone knows they like to practice voodoo math.What if bycatch was at a IMO low 10 percent.that would be 36 million fish.

Yea its the 50K fish that come from the Bournedale run thats the problem..This closer will do nothing.It's like putting a fire out wit gas.
