Its a catch 22. Take from Peter to pay Paul or kill giants and let them go to waste.

Don't they make the LL fleet use weak hooks in the gulf to avoid bft? Why wouldn't that work up here?

Figures, I'm sure they just want to consolidate he fleet to a few LL boats to make it easier for them. Just another consolidation in the works.

 

[googinhater]

Yeah let fuck the rod and reel guys for the us to keep there share of the sword fish fuck noaa skum bag cunts

 

[Badlatitude]

If the long line sword guys are killing that many BFT... Then close sword long line. Force them tuna long line with sword incidental. WTF why punish everyone except the ones killing all the by catch fish.


Either way the NMFS doesn't use logic and reason.

Exactly, we used to go to all the meetings for public comment, and all the NOAA people would twiddle their thumbs, look at their watches and ignore everything said by the public sector. Trust me , this decision is already made. They will do what they want. They sure don't have Herrings best interest in mind, now do they? Collapse the groundfishery, collapse the Tuna fishery, collapse the bait for the lobster guys--but oh yes, their are plenty of herring to go around. Anyone who fished Jefferies or the BB bouy in the mid-late 90's knew what it was like when there was some Herring around, anyone newer on the scene can't possibly fathom it.
Get up to PEI, and you will see what good Herring looks like now. And go figure-lots of happy Bluefins up there! NOAA sucks, and they always have. Rant over.
