NO FISHING!

Sometimes we get caught up in our own backyard so much that we miss the rest of the world. I harp on the fishing closures - but it seems I only harp on those affecting me personally. Grouper, red snapper and vermilion snapper are closed in the Gulf and in the Southeast Atlantic, and that affects me personally. What I failed to see is that black sea bass, a bottom fishing staple among mid and north Atlantic states, was closed this past October for 180 days because of "overfishing".

The Recreational Fishing Alliance (RFA) and a number of other organizations like United Boatmen have planned a march on Washington DC, to protest the fishing closures that have been based on science that is what we all believe questionable at best.

If you are in the area make plans to be there. If you can afford to come - plan a trip and be there on February 24 as recreational and commercial fishermen join hands in an effort to make Washington aware of the situation.

All of this is blamed on the Magnuson-Stevens Act that requires that actions be taken to stop overfishing for any species of fish within one year. What they powers that be fail to read is the rest of the story - the act also requires that they take into account the effects of any of their actions on people and industries that depend on fishing. So far, they have failed miserably at addressing that side of the equation.
