Fuzzy math
Unfortunately DD, your math is a little fuzzy. A quick census check puts the US population at about 300 million. So with the 3 million rec striper fisherman accounting for 60% of the kill (mostly for fun), that's 1% of the population that accounts for the majority. Com. fisherman are providing the resource to that other 99%, but fringe groups like PETA, Stripers Forever, etc. seem to forget that fact. The tiny commercial harvest is insignificant, and in fact doesn't even add up to the release mortality of the recs. How's Bradley doing, tell him people are still laughing...
