I am not going to say I agree with everything that Patrick has to say, BUT frankly, most of what he wrote was spot on. The tough part for him is how to figure out how to be fair to the commercial fishermen. To me, and seamingly to all of you, paying them with money generated from a fishing license is not the way to go. For me to be completely on board with him this would have to change.

However, his numbers on protecting the fish stocks were great and his reasoning works too. I do not think Patrick has an agenda except to protect the fishery for fishermen, store owners, club/hotel owners etc. Don't tell me that every fisherman would just switch to catching blues either. That is a horrible excuse, plus Patrick is trying to avoid that happening again. Isn't that a good thing?
