Lemme also add the fact that not only does all that Cod that there is now a massive lacking of and still needs major management and enforcement, but the demand for ground fish is STILL far more than the supply.

A very large chunk of it all goes overseas.
Maybe we should stop exporting groundfish and the such?
That would help considerably.

Its not a simple equation where you blame the commercial guys, but everyone involved from rec's to commercial, to fish houses, to distributors, to exporters, to stores, to other countries are at fault. You just can't go and blame one group and expect everything to magically get better by restricting them.

Its not like all this fish is coming off the boats and nobody is buying it. It all gets sold.

I also hold a commercial tuna license, and lobster license and town of XXXXXXX recreational shellfish license.

Am I evil for that?
