    Im not trying to feed the world on the backs of others for profit. Fish belong to everyone, why do you get to take more than others? Not to feed your family or locals but the WORLD. What's up with that, Sounds like you are raping nature to make a Buck,I don't think that is right.

    Much of the world is fed on small herring sized fish. They feed on plankton. Good luck feeding the world that depends on them with a fishing rod.
    its gonna take a life time to hunt and fish all this
