Well the arguement will always have to have a blame point. Easy solution is a moratorium.Shut it down close the tackle shops and the charter industry.Keep it shut down for at least 5 yrs.Chase scup an mackeral with maybe a blue in the mix from time to time. get caught wih a striper on the hook $1000 fine an loss of all gear in possession.No one to blame then. Always easier to blame rather than take any steps to fix the problem.
You hear most angler tell about landing very few fish from shore and the same from boats. Cut backs have already been done by most to the point that most don't catch or keep many fish.The only cut back left is to just shut it all down.As far as I can see it's about the only way to get those with a commercial ticket to cut back too.Greed is what it is.Yup the guy without a paycheck keeps more than most to feed his family.with gas bein what it is even he won't land many fish this yr. So just shut it down that way everyone has to cut back not just us hardcores that release most of what we land. The feds had to do it last time hopefully they do it soon to make sure the fish do survive.Ron
