[QUOTE=RIROCKHOUND;677166]Good discussion guys. I don't do much w/ inshore Bluefin down here... we save our fuel for the longer run, so I am woefully out of the BFT management loop... BUT, it seems to me, the original argument is that the quota will be given away has nothing to do with the Rec's not calling it in (assuming Chris is right that the recs have reached their quota the last few years, I don't know but I believe him), and it is really an issue of fewer commercial fish being caught... is that fair?

Yes thats a fair shake down.
