Without getting into the legality of this subject,
1. How many tuna do you think could be wrestled to shore each year?
2. How many tuna could be caught by rod and reel from shore each year?
3. How many tuna are caught on rod and reel from boats each year?

Frasier: Niles, I’ve just had the most marvelous idea for a website! People will post their opinions, cheeky bon mots, and insights, and others will reply in kind!

Niles: You have met “people”, haven’t you?

The total alloted landings I think are 1669 Metric tons
Do you think the half ton captured from shore would affect the population?

It's not the point.
If it was illegal to catch Bass after 1 Nov, and you caught one on 2 Nov on a toothbrush, floss and some crest for bait, it wouldn't make it right just because it never happens.

I realize it is against the law and am not advocating doing it. I just find it slightly absurd that you are required to be in a boat to capture one. It's not like there would be a significant impact on the population if it was legal to take one from shore or would there be?
