Tomorrow is the last day to write a letter.
Speak up now or don't complain later!
May the fish be mighty and the seas be meek...

It is looking like they're leaning toward 1 bucket.

Here is the draft fishery management plan. https://www.wildlife.ca.gov/Fishing/Commercial/Herring/FMP

What bugs me is how this is described as a public process even though few rec fishermen knew about it until the last minute. Where was the public outreach? Did they, for example, tell the media that a plan was being rolled out? I'm a journalist, and I write about ocean-related science and conservation, and the folks at DFW and Oceana know that, and still I can say there was no formal effort to inform me of what was happening. So, again, what made this a public process?

Final gripe for now: It appears the commission will make their final decision at a meeting in San Diego. (Am I wrong about this?)
