Bryan, excellent job.

I dont understand much of this but 50% sounds too much to me. That much lobster bait is needed? There is more than enough bluefish available to fill any reduction in bunker. I just think 25% of the population may be reasobnle. Alloiong 50% of the bunker population to be taken sounds crazy from someone as ignorant on the issue as I am

Great job Bryan relaying this topic into layman's terms.
Sounds like the need for a complete commercial shutdown of the species was totally uncalled for.
My feeling is to believe the experts as they have a lot more knowledge than the average fisherman does.
