It's about protecting livelihoods and a freedom we have all enjoyed. Remember one thing, the Commercial guys have daily pound limits, yes they get'em when we don't, but look at what we are being told...The stocks have re-bounded, we haven't over fished and overfishing isn't occurring, so what the hell is the problem?
These guys have family's and are 3rd and 4th generation fishermen, like us...Do I say "Because I'm a Party Boat guy" and make my living doing this that everyone with their own boat should be last on the list??
BS, we are all in this together and if we don't show it now when the clock is ticking, we will be dead in the future......Currious to see how many Party and Charter boat Captains really do show up. If this isn't that important then maybe you should think about a job at WalMart!!!

Ron,
I would think that the same guys that bitch about Recs Vs Comms would bitch when they can't get spearing or fresh clams or their favorite restaurant is out of fresh swordfish when they want it.
