I agree there are fish out there , but I don't share your same optimism about them not being wiped out again. It is nice to be positive but I will not stick my head in the sand. I don't trust the management of the fisheries, poor track record. If the menhaden are the next species to be fished near extinction then what will the bass be left with to fatten up? There is only so much out there , I know the will still eat and survive but it won't be like when you could castnet some bunker for the live well and the bass were all fat. It's kinda like the ol give em an inch , they take a mile saying when it comes to some commercial fisherman.

I agree about the part where you said people should learn to fish , well that's what is great about these message boards , they do help.
