Isn't the GOM one of the few places where cod stocks have been increasing?

I should have said close all flounder fishing south of the cape. Cod stocks are increasing everywhere, but not fast enough to suit the fishcrats.

umm...i think with the new administration in the white house, you could probably say that before the end of this 4 year term you will have MPA's off the east coast.

Change
I hope the change the new admistration brings will be applied in a maner that make scientific sense and not just business sense for the big fishing companies.
I need to stop. My blood pressure is rising.
