[DMac]

[QUOTE=Capt. Lou]I do not shark fish at all anymore, however I'll fight to the end to protect the rights of our anglers to do so!!
Those foreign ships do in fact slaughter these fish and many other species wholesale, lets keep supporting their efforts through us purchasing their products carte blanche!
You can't have it both ways either you draw a line or your done!! We fish to the letter of the law, while they take what they want and couldn't care less about limits, treatys etc. Thanks to our Gov't they are really looking out for us fisherman, & I mean all american fisherman, what a joke,it's hard to believe we pay their salaries to screw us over time & time again!! How dumb can we be? Anyone?? :mad


Dumb very dumb. People are not willing to stand up and fight or kick and scream because of being afraid of what people will think of them.

What if our founding fathers of this great nation were the same as we are today. i would think we would still be under control by the british.

These foreign fishing vessels coming in and taking fish from our waters has to be stopped. Send out a broadcast to every nation giving them the warning and letting them know there vessel will be sunk. I would be human and go pick up any survivors after the boat goes down, but they would be they woudl be sent back to thier country as soon as we docked. one way plane ticket to international airport close to port of call. From there they would have to figure it out. LOL

Sharks numbers are not at all a decline due to recreational fishing pressure. Anyone who states that is either in government or part of PETA LOL.

I personally will not even think about killing a mako before it gets approximately 200lbs. I know the average breeding weight is about 250-300lbs, but i look at it that it is a lot better than killing 54 inchers.
