However, I'm not wedded to a tog slot if the science says otherwise. It makes sense to me on an instinctive level, but instincts and gut feelings are often wrong in the face of data...whatever they need to do to rebuild the stock is fine as long as it's based on science and not politics or "economical impact."
I'm not dogmatic about how they rectify the situation...as long they do it. The inaction by the ASMFC re tog is unconscionable.

What to me IMHO is that a document like I posted can even be generated and submitted to the public / councils with admitted unclear data and be submitted for regulation with an economic impact on 100's of thousands anglers/ for hire boats along the coast. This HAS TO STOP
