Given the raw numbers of fish potentially to be imported, to equate this with "pet shop" goldfish smacks of spin.
If the importer doesn't have a permit good for this year then they will have to follow the existing process, even if it's different.
I'm not trying to be a #^&#^&#^&#^& here, but I just don't see how the economic welfare of a few baitshops would be really harmed by a product that they've never sold...assuming the state has a valid legal reason to delay or forbid the sale as neighboring states have.
