Me, too. Few people realize one of the best swordfish grounds in the world was the water between BI and Nomans and out 10-15 miles. As a kid I watched 300-500lb fish brought to the dock by boats out for just the day (harpooned). Long lining put an end to all that and wiped out the great white marlin fishery we had 20 years ago to boot. Just another commercial interest/fishery management/greed horror story.
