Hummmmmm, first post. Okay it's obvious, but I will bite anyway. 1st and foremost, the recreational catch is statistically insignificant. As such, there is not a need to regulate it, with the exception of species such as abalone, due to their reproductive requirements. The science utilized, was not actually science, it was conjecture falsely presented as science. But by far, most importantly, if you want to increase a species, you need to be sure there is an ample food supply (what we generally refer to as bait). But in-fact, what has happened is that they have increased the harvest rate of the food supply; increased commercial opportunity (predatory species), while decreasing recreational opportunity. The fact is that our fishery is a public resource, however, the regulations passed down through this process, have further opened the flood gates to increase commercial catches, which by the way, the vast majority are shipped off to an unlimited overseas market. In other words, the overseas market wants to purchase much much more than they already are; their demand is literally limitless. This overseas market has already depleted many fisheries around the world, they are only beginning in ours. Last edited by bubblehide; 02-16-2015 at 09:17 PM. |

MLPA's were created because some bonehead thought that if you created a 'no fishing zone' all of the fish would run and hide in that spot, no one would catch them and they would be able to multiply because they wouldn't migrate into the 'OK to fish zones'

To lay silent is just the same as accepting what this ill informed, misguided person is thoughtlessly projecting. Isn't it time we speak up an be the voice of reason. I mean, the vast majority of people that support this utter nonsense, are ill informed by misguided people like the OP. The vast majority of those people, are actually open to reasonable logical conversations that actually dispel the crap spouted by people like the op. Man, it can, at times, be difficult to avoid name calling. |

One may argue that MPLAs represent only a small percent of the overall marine environment but there is a lot of truth to the old saying that 90% of the fish live in 10% of the water. It's a fact that 100% of MPLAs exist within that 10% of the water. MPLAs impact the distribution of fishing pressure that once existed. Anglers are left with fewer options the areas that remain open are receiving more angling pressure..As fishing declines in these areas due to increased pressure fishing will be blamed for over fishing the open areas which will fuel the argument that more closures are necessary.. Closures may have very well led to the decline in marine life but we will stand to lose more ground.
Thus far any significant benefit to the fisheries that exist outside of protected zones remains to be proven... Instead of enforcing a conservation initiative that restricts the rights of the people to fish public waters we should be focusing on conservation initiatives that been successfully proven. We need to protect fish when they are most vulnerable (when they are spawning). This has helped improve our WSB and rockfish fisheries. Reduce limits and impose special restrictions for fisheries that are at higher risk. No one wants to see our fish stocks rebound more than recreational anglers. The fishing community should have more say in how our fisheries are managed. |

Outdoors...
I just heard this and it seem to fit here...
"Teach your children to value the outdoor experience. Because what they don't value they won't protect and what they won't protect they will lose!
