Cod are doomed on their own dogfish or no dogfish.

(Anyone have the NMFS newsletter where they outright said cod are screwed? Does anyone here even get it?)
Off topic for a minute, why are we still fishing for something that has been labeled vulnerable? Does anyone else see the stupidity in that? I will happily say I'm a hypocrite in this sense, but it doesn't stop me from scratching my head.

this is based on a talk and papers I read by a guy named 'RAM' (Ransom A Myers I think) who was a Canadian fisheries biologist (I think I heard he passed away)

Can't tell from the Meyers Lab site, but its no longer updated (since 07)
Hey, you at least went and actually decided to research on your own instead of say, blaming other fish.
