One net full of stripers dumped as bycatch is worse than a 1000 of us can do in a month and during the squid season and when the bunker boats are netting it happens several times a day. We still ignore the forest for the trees. Yup I don't like the comercial striper fishing but the bycatch does so much damage most can't even imagine it. Like I've said many times WHY DO YOU THINK THEY FISH MOSTLY AT NIGHT IN COASTAL WATERS NOW.We need to get off each other and deal with the bigger problem ist. It's not just the mid water trawlers that do big damage.It all does some hurt but fishing always will. Catch an release or for food.But by catch that can be prevented and isn't due to greed is just plain a waste and sad.Ron
