You're a classy guy.......but I think you are a bit confused. The NMFS IS THE SCIENCE, they don't set policy or manage fisheries. They are paid by the public to work for the public. The bureaucrats are they guys in DMF and ASMFC, who are paid by the public, but also by your commercial fishermen buddies to F' Up the fishery on your behalf. They do this easily by picking what science they want to believe and ignoring any science that does not fit their agenda. It works quite well as I'm sure you are aware.

Hope you find this helpful.
