commercial interests have been rapeing resouce forever...I worked in fish factory for a few years and nearly ten on wharf so saw alot..... and the changes a few short years made on resource...
and while Im up on high horse.....why not install pellet feeders on the likes of wharfs to actually FEED THE FISH.....like is done on salmon farms.....wouldnt need to be huge amount and fish would congregate.... where you have little fish you end up with bigger fish....sort of help out the bottom end and attract for fishing folks at same time..... thats a thought from days in fish factory on waterside,where all waste product got turned into fish meal.....dead easy to make pellets and have feeder pop them back into ocean.....wharf fishing is not a scratch on what it used to be.

The trouble with the feeding idea is…. The pellets are fish based, from fish processing.
