The part that I don't understand about commercial fisheries management is how trawling is regulated and the effect of bycatch on the fisheries. This seems like it has way more impact and is far less visible than any of the other methods of commercial fishing. Some frieds kid spent a year or two as a fisheries observer and said that the waste was incredible. What that means in the big picture I don't know.
