Problem is more regulations that a lack of fish. Open sea bass all year 25 fish, liberalize fluke limits, etc. and some people will come back. It won't go back the the glory days but it will be a good improvement.

I don't know much, and this is just speculation, but I think thats the right track for the future.. Farm raised fish, both fresh and salt water.. Hell, a few months ago i saw nice looking farm raised hybrid stripers on ice at Wegmans in ithaca.. Probably better eating than a big one that lived a lot of her life in the Hudson/Rartitan/NY Bight complex..

That and massive habitat construction.. Wreck, reefs etc.. get rid of the big expanses of sand in coastal areas, and intersperse them with structure,,, More habitat means more fish.... bob

They don't need to do that.. there can be some oversight and guidelines I'm sure.

Just saying we raise meat, we raise vegetables and fruit.. We can raise fish as well, and leave a few in the damn ocean instead of netting them and gobbling them down before they can even reproduce, which is what we are doing in the modern age.
