The alternatives description states that "non-consumptive" recreational practices are maximized by establishing near shore no fishing zones.

I am calling [censored] on this. Establishing no fishing zones only eliminates fishing opportunity and has no bearing on other "recreational practices" in this area.

Well, it may be true if you believe 'recreational practice' includes some whack-o getting a hard one thinking about fishing closures.... maybe the wack-o's next step is the activity referred to as "non-consumptive" recreational practice ?

As for sportsmen being on one of these kangaroo court advisory groups, seems to me it is a lot like being a car parked under the light post at the beach.
