I went Sail Fishing down in Thailand last week and you should hear the Thailanders bitch about the Chinese commercial fleet that comes in at night right off their coast and takes all their Tuna, Sail fish and Marlin and they cannot stop them. On our way out you could see the huge commercial boats dissapear over the horizon right at day break. It goes on everywhere.
Commercial fishing is the scurge of the ocean in any shape or form, no regardefor the resource one bit.
Anyone that sticks up for or tries to justify commercial netting is doing the resouce and themselves a dis-service.
