I don’t have a problem with fishing, but shouldn’t catches be monitored and tracked to ensure we don’t catch things that are endangered? This can mean switching the things we catch from time to time as fishing stocks change.

Also regulations being more harsh on recreational fishers than commercial ones is kinda bullshit. Why are massive trawlers held to a lower standard than a guy with a rod in his hand trying to catch his own dinner? That one varies heavily by location though. Where I live is generally pretty good, if I go 50 miles east its extremely restrictive.

Quick edit: Saw your other post that minke whale isn’t endangered. Good to know. Yeah as long as they are following that I don’t really care.
