Right up there with the trawlers. Just like I said in the NC thread, commercial guys should start looking at their own industry-men if they wish to have a livelihood in the near future.

The writing is on the wall. Whether the fishery is in trouble or not, these industrial-scale poachers just give more ammo to the conservation groups and anti-commercial fishing groups. Personally I'm unaffected if the fishery gets shut down... "Sorry Officer, I'm fishing for bluefish. I wish all these pesky striped bass would stop going after my live eels."
