Unfortunately as has been demonstrated, this can not be done in the current system. They tried, its not working and it's filled with emotions of all the user groups, who, like warring religious wackos, don't see the benefit of conservation of the fish if it means THEY can't participate to the degree they once did.
The only proven way to help the fish is to treat it in a similar fashion as tarpon, bonefish, permit, etc. Otherwise, as long as there is $/lb on the fish, it is doomed. Further, fishery managers, need to open their eyes more and protect the little fish that SB consume.
