If my memory serves me right  there was some "other guys" fishing the fraser way back in the 50's, 60's,70's and 80's ( 1900 that is )
They also did this to put food on the table for there families and  invested heavily in their boats to do so .
Now generations later their sons and grandsons want also to do the same but the fish are in trouble and they have been told to stand down ,and to give the fish a chance to recoupe .
Yes they are not happy about it but do you see them doing it anyways . Do you see them ramming boats and openly flaunting the law
by fishing at night and basicly selling fish to idiots that will buy them . >:( No
If the fish was just for personal consumption I might understand this whole mess a little better but these fish are being caught and sold by fn
and the "other guy" is being told to just sit there and watch  ::)
