Why do I get the feeling that the "fisheries management" people have no real clue as to what is going on? In the northeast it's the Fluke population that is the spotted owl, although from all indications the biomass of this species is greater than it's been for the past 10 years... Now they've set their sights on Black Sea Bass and Weakfish. In all cases I personally think that if they would just BAN commercial fishing of these species there would be no problems. Instead it's the recreational fisherman that takes it in the neck while the commercial fisheries continue to get larger and larger quota's. Damn them all!!

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
