Gee, I don't belong to any clubs, but I have no problem with you pointing out that I feel the recreational sector also is a huge part of the problem.
The real problem, however, is neither the recreational or commercial sector......it is the attitude of individuals in each group. As I see it you and the SF guys you hate are one of a kind. Both happy to shaft the other to improve their own lot.
A united voice from the recreational and commercial sector to the ASMFC asking for more conservative management (to protect us from ourselves) is what is needed. Somehow I don't see you as likely to be interested in that approach.
I doubt this bill will pass. I am very glad it was filed, however. At very least it may scare some sense into the ASMFC and the commercial sector that for too long has gleefully ignored the impact of their actions on the average schmuck fisherman. A better balance is needed than what we have now.
