I took Andy's post, and easily could be wrong, to say NMFS has their head where it doesn't belong and is suggesting making your own set of rules. Andy chime in.

I'm absolutely convinced the data I've worked with, the conclusions drawn and reasons stated are killing the fishery, they need to be changed. It would create enormous benefits for commercial and recreational interests combined in approximately three years. As mentioned earlier, states, government regulatory bodies, commercial and recreational interests, party and charter boat captains etc might all be impacted short term and have to work together meaning certain compromises would be in order. In the end, the fishery will flourish and "Enough is Enough" will forever be in the rear view mirror.
