Too many new guy's that don't understand what great was. things were OK to good for a few years, nothing like what it once was.
Game fish status and slots are the only way we will ever bring it back and maintain it. Too many big fish being killed right now. Almost like a bad movie being replayed the Cows are hung up at Block Island and being slaughtered in numbers that make me want to puke. 40's to 60's by the boat load. head boats 2 trips a day 50 limits each trip, fish are all breeders.
Do the math, with the current technology and success rates it will happen twice as fast as last time.
