I found an article saying that the waters were going to be controlled and taken over for "preservation" and many, if not all the areas legal to fish will be gone.

Seems like a disaster waiting to happen if this actually takes place. No commercial fishing industry. Loss of a $125 billion sport fishing industry. Less tax revenue for the government during a recession. People losing more jobs. People starving to death who depend on fish for food. Skyrocketing fish prices in stores, if not a complete lack of fish in the future. And of course, the loss of a major sport.
I guess I won't be getting a fishing license next year if this happens.
