That's usually what's said right before they start disappearing.
If the swordfish,bluefin,striper etc. had been reasonbly regulated when 1st proposed way back we would've never seen major declines in stocks that we now have.
To say that there's plenty for everybody is complacent at best and foolish at worst.
