another question about comm tuna regs

On the DMF site there is little mention of BT. (other than you need a state and fed lic). The offical dealer list does not even list the species.
So, do you have to sell BT to a lic'ed dealer? If a restaurant wants to purchase your fish, can you sell it to them? Can you show me where it says I have to do so.

To date every fish I have sold has been to a registered lic'ed wholesale dealer. The other day a sushi place asked me about a fish and they were interested but I did not see their name on the DMF dealer list. Is it legal to sell it directly to a place like that? (I am sure it is done but I want to know if it is legal)

The reason I question this is that the fishermen (or dealer) has to essentially report the fish caught to the fed. So if it registered, why should it matter who buys it?
