See, this is where I think you are wrong:"re: public fish. Saving them for a small percentage of the pop...NO! that is what comm fisherman want. All the fish for themselves. I want no INSHORE commercial fishing whatsoever."
If there was no demand by the general population there would be no commercial fisherman. They are merely the ones profiting off the job of being the providers. Those in charge of regulating the allocation (you like that John?) have to look at the entire picture when making decisions, not the small population of rec. fishermen. That's why groups like Peta and Stripers Forever will always come out losers
goosefish, was that article in The National Fishermen about you? That was a very interesting article. If so, good luck!
