Now those are regulations. Here in RI, its just 2@28.. because of this, people say that they are perfectly legal keeping 2 fish a day, because that is the law... however, none of that fish ever makes it into thier kitchen... but I digress..
Personally i dont think we are on a brink of a collapse, but we as a whole should have learned the lessons of the late 70's -early 80's....
