I think it will help the fishery, but we need to do more to restrict commercial boats. If that means you pay $15/# @ the store, so be it. This is not a farm and the resources when gone will not be easily replenished.

Sorry to disagree, but the ocean is a farm.Mother Nature's farm,and you can harvest large quantities,but there are limits,when those limits are reached you must limit or stop harvesting the Oceans resources.By closing down area to a no take fishery,or as politician like to call them perserves, you have only put more pressure on the surrounding areas not cured the problem. We need to work at curing the problems, overfishing,No matter how you look at the problem it always comes back to pollution and overfishing. We are all guilty of polluting,but who is taking 95% or more of the fish???Not You or I, but the commercial fisherman.... If done right, there's plenty of fish to go around for the commercial fisherman and us.
