Sober Hope Around Fishing

Some practical optimism from someone who is very familiar with the issues -- Lee Crockett of Pew, referring to 2011 progress on US fishing legislation: 

"I am confident that we are on track to realize the economic and environmental promises of the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act -- namely, that we can manage our oceans in such a way that ensures stocks are healthy, commercial fishermen are making money, and anglers like me have many opportunities on the water."
