Rather than doubling down on failed fishery management policies that focus on restricting our freedom to fish, why don’t we use more proven management tools that focus on enhancing our fisheries and food supply?
Rather than letting global corporations set up industrial fish farming operations in our public waters, why don’t we use hatcheries and habitat enhancements to blend the best of aquaculture and wild-caught seafood?
Rather than ignoring habitat issues that negatively impact spawning, why don’t we help mother nature overcome spawning obstacles by regionally stocking native larval-stage seafood that can naturally reproduce?
Rather than accepting stricter regulations and diminishing access to wild-caught seafood, why don’t we work toward making our public fisheries the best they can be while keeping fish and fishermen wild and free?
