SK, you've posted an email address for yourself before, I nearly bit then for I disagree with you on this subject. I think I have solid reasoning for this disagreement. I'd be happy to address some of your issues, but I'm more like our CEO, I have his marble mouth and I'm not a gifted writer like our Tasty.

If you post your email again, I'll be happy to expound on this issue with you privately.

Perhaps a fishery needs a certain critical mass to bounce back, and if you overfish past that point they won't recover? On the East Coast, specifically in the Chesapeake Bay, a massive estuary, biggest in the US, 3rd biggest in the world, states enacted a moratorium on fishing for rockfish (striped bass) because the population had dropped to very low levels - it took 10 yrs for the fishery to recover, and there are still extremely tight limits on when you can fish for them, what size you can keep, and how many you can catch - they are dependent on small menhaden, which are commercially harvested to make DHA for foods, and the companies that fish for them are caught breaking catch limits all the time. Keeping the rockfish population strong and healthy is a full time job for the DNRs.
