I support the petition to develop purse seine net regulations.
 

You will receive many "pre written" messages about this. That does NOT mean the sender doesn't care. I think anyone sending a note on this subject "cares".
A native of Tidewater, I know the value of these fish in our eco system. From our wonderful rockfish to the awesome passing whales, they are sustenance. In addition to protecting the resource, YOU have the responsibilty of showing concern for the factory fishing's impact on bycatch. Please consider it all.
