Dead on. ICCAT cannot control the med fisherman. been an issue for decades. They tried to proof it was a 2 distinct group of fish. It's all one.
Any fisherman on this page will tell you the giants are just not there and have been decreasing for years. With the caplin gone up north I am suprised they are still here on the east coast.

What really is scary is the cost drop from a 25 a lb fish to a 10 lb fish because of volume. That's a real scene that the last one is out there.
