So..
if you 'Gladly give up all my Lic and buy a rec lic if they would close all inshore commercial fishing!!'

what would you do?

I can't afford 4x a week in the boat. when I was fishing 4x a week in a boat, it was a much smaller boat. So I boat fish ~1x a week and surf fish the rest. I enjoy it all, fish caught or not.

This off topic anyways.

My original point was we need to look at ourselves (rec anglers) just as much as we need to point fingers at Comm. guys.
If they stopped all commercial fishing inshore, the fish would return, quotes would increase, and there would be no need to have to go 4 times a week for food on the table. There would be plenty for everyone!
