The trouble with not buying licenses is that undoubtedly some bean counting spin doctor would see that there is no longer much interest in sport fishing, so might as well increase commercial harvest...simple enough to keep the State's revenue stream good by increasing fees on the commercial guys to offset the low sales of sport license.

The best economics is going to include both, amazingly similar to reality...the massive economic hammer that some people claim just isn't real.
