Came across this short history lesson from another website few months ago. See the below link if it works. Really gets under my skin.
I really feel bad for the Charter and Party boat owners. How about the people who actually see the fish on the deck every day have a say in the regulations, like the Charter and Party boat owners. I guess that would put a few federal bean counters out of work and open up tons and tons of fishing boat owners and mates jobs. And to make some money!
I will stop self regulating my catch as soon as my taxes are reduced by 30% each year like the fishing regulations.
