I don't know what to say. "All or Nothing" mentality is not the way to go! Is this the former Soviet Union? Dorothy, you better click those heals until we get back to reality. I would like to see some sort of impartial federal committee (ya right) appoint an investigative "objective" team to look into how our fishery management/bureaucratic process works. How much logic was really used to support this action? How can such definitive, radical and extreme actions be implemented when the basis for it is so ambiguous. Is this about greasing palms and owing favors?

I feel bad for a lot of the businesses that will be adversely affected by this. What are all of these boats going to do now? Convert their fleets to glass bottom boats? Does this mean that CISCOS and other landings are going to be sending out 4-5 Party Boats every day to fish along the mainland's coastline? Did the commission even think about the impact it's going to have on the commercial sport fishing fleet's alternative fishing areas? Expect Deep Hole, Arco Island and a bunch of local reefs up and down the coast to get fished out. I respect the party boat's dilemna, but I think the arrangement could divide sportfishing groups up even more.

What now? You go on an overnight boat and it takes you to Leo Carillo?

I am urked!!!
