I hope that this will not be considered hijacking the argument but Paul's post is really interesting. If the carefully regulated number of squid boats can reach their annual limit in half a year that must mean somthing.
Are the squid becoming more plentiful? Are the harvesting methods too efficient? Has the DFG miscalculated the fishing pressure applied by the commercial boats?
If someone knows the answers, I think that it would make interesting reading, (maybe in a new thread).
