I was on the DMF site tonight and noticed
Commercial quota for dog fish
Quota- 4,000,000 lbs for 2004
Landings- 380,674
Thats less than 11% of the quota caught for the whole year, and there is less than 2 1/2 months left in the year!!!
Daily catch limits
Jan 19 - April 30 300 lbs per day
May 1 - Quota dep 600 lbs per day
It's no big mystery why very few guys fish for them commercially when they pay next to nothing per lb!!! and at best to catch 600 lbs per day!!!
I think some changes are in order!!!
