Gerry I agree I could have worded it more clearly. I'm not coming at Paul, my comments are directed as they've always been at the agencies making these horrible decisions and taking no responsibility for their actions. What Paul wrote may well be the outcome but it won't one iota address the problem if it is in fact completely environmentally driven as a result of primarily Omega Protein destroying natures built in filtration system in the bay. That's why I said with all due respect to Paul but could have been more clear in my comments.

There's countless articles about the pollution problem in the Chesapeake caused by relentless harvest of menhaden and the resulting impacts to the entire ecosystem. Agencies, federal and state, have to get off their collective asses and do something about it as opposed to two states, NMFS, ASMFC pandering to the whims of the special interest groups who are making an absolute fortune at everyone else's expense.
