This is an important petition, if you care about the future of Bluefin and its fishery in this country. These fish need substantial forage, if they cant find it, they move on. If they move on, we dont catch 'em, the Canadians do. If we dont catch, our quotas will be reduced. I cant believe with 189 views between this thread and Capt Brian Daley's thread on Mix it up., only 5 replies? C'mon, take a minute and read through the petition, if you agree with it, support it. If not, then dont.
I've seen our fishery for Giants up here go to hell in few short years, and its not coincidental that these boats showed up, inshore about that time. my$.02

So many guys talk about how much this issue matters on the docks and at the meetings (and everywhere else!).... here is a way to show support that literally takes seconds too sign and so I hope those people will take the tiny amount of effort that this requires and do this.

Guy's you cannot allow this inshore netting to continue! just look at the UK it is so important to all your fish stocks the "shallows" are your nurseries everybody should sign this, the French and English fleets have all but destroyed fishing around the British coast, act now guys before it is to late.
