How else can you explain the complete mismanagement of our fisheries(winter flounder, whiting, fluke, blackfish, etc.) ?

Would you call commercial fishermen and commercial fisheries with money to pay lobbyist to promote their interest progressive liberals? I believe if I read it right on here commercial fisherman will be able to keep flounder as bycatch when out of season for them. Maybe recs should be able to do the same with by catch flounder when fishing for other species like striped bass.
