The problem with the fishing industry is that the fishermen are in denial. There has not been enough notice taken of the science in time. Now it is too late. The populations of the species of fish we like to eat have been so overfished that the level at which recovery could have taken place has been and gone. The massive cod fisheries are finished. The hope that a moratorium would result in stock recovery took place too late.
