tag-a-giant and Block are huge supporters of shutting the fishery down...the two stock theory was created by a guy name Fox...that is why the ICAAT quota for the western atlantic was so low...one a BFT reaches about 90 inches they travel to the Med to breed ect...some stay here but it has always been like a 10th of what spawns in the med, I do not have a study but I have been at this game my whole life and it is common knowledge amongst loing time bft enthusiasts...just look at where some of those pop ups surface...Ireland, Spain Italy...
