I don't understand why we are expected to keep people in business

If the fishery can't support commercial fishing it must be eliminated or shrunk to a sustainable size.

The idea that we need to make concesions so a small minority can stay employed is insane.

Commercial hunting was banned around 1900 because game could not sustain the pressure I don't know when the fisheries people are going to get there heads out of ??? and face the facts

Everyone needs to protect the resources not just the recreational guys because regulating the recreational guys is not working

A perfect example I can catch 6 18" fluke a commercial guy can catch 65 # of 14 1/2" fish The only way you can get a commercial license is to buy one from someone who dies Again either we can have a commercial fisheries or we can not. Either we need a creel limit and size limit or we do not

And don't even get me started about the draggers killing everything they touch
