Sea Bass Closure

The answer to any fish shortage, CUT OUT THE ROD AND REEL GUYS !!

Just like the ICCAT, people in Europe laugh at our bluefin regs while they take them by the metric ton.

Maybe the small yellowfin is another indicator as to what is happening, and the answer to that one will be to shut down the rod and reel guys !

They raped all the cod and haddock and cried to the government for $$$, then went after the herring because it was the only thing left.

I think rod and reel people use better judgement and only take what they can consume, and they do just that, feed thier families. If I had it my way I would let rod and reel guys take whatever they wanted, and I think you would be surprised as a self governing force would take effect and we could have our own voice, but we are shunned by big money and power and left to fend for ourselves and feed off the scaps left behind by the COMMERCIAL SLAUGHTER !!!!!!
