Help stop Giant Commercial Fishing Fleets from cleaning out local Habitats. Big Box Fishing is depleting the Fish Stocks from local Waters of the New England Coas line.

I thought Obama administration fishing rules were screwing over ALL fishermen up there. Even Kerry was whining.
Yes he has and having Comandant Jane Lubchenco a Super Environmentalist Tree Hugger as Leader of Fisheries division has allowed Catch Shares to ruin a perfectly good system. Local Charter Boat captains and Recreational fishermen like myself have a difficult time finding fish now. Giant Trawlers have been clearing out what used to be a protected Santuary Stellwagen Bank. Now the Fleet wants access to The Northern Edge of The Gulf of Maine. Making recreational and small commercial fishing impossible. Any help with this petition is appreciated.
