They've been in Wareham for 3 weeks now.
And you can't account for the abnormal depletion of Bournedale by blaming only the trawlers. That should affect all of the local runs equally, including Wareham and Middleboro. A share of the blame for Bournedale has to rest at the feet of fishermen. Poaching was an epidemic there in the 1990s. I don't blame the guys who played by the rules, got their permit, and their daily allotment. There was a lot of stocking of livewells by midnight netting going on, and the enforcement was non-existent. Too easy access, too lax enforcement
