"From a fisheries management perspective, the permits are beneficial because they take the pressure off over fished species while it maximizes underutilized species, Ballou said. "
They may be underutilized to us but don't they stop and think about the other marine species that use them for food? Besides that there still is a local fishery for herring in RI most rec fisherman catch their own, and they use them for bait in lobster pots. We don't need any extra pressure on the herring.
Then again what do I know I have no position of power and no matter how much I rant nothing ever gets done. They do what they want no matter what me you are anyone has to say about it. All we do is complain yet no one organizes anything to fix the policies and get our points of view and our concerns across.
