Seems to me I know who has the bigger impact, by far, In My Personal Experience.

In Dana point I normally find 50-100 shorts per legal! Sounds crazy but I have 3 years and dozens of trips there to back that up and I doubt at that rate its the recreational guys doing the impact it, and they have the nerve go say its us and not the commercial pots in a grid pattern 15-20 feet apart all over the point..... twords the beginning of this session I padled to the point and was disgusted by the sheer number of commercial pots some so close to each other I could span the distance with my yak....
Thanks for the great information if we could raise awareness hopefully we can help fight to keep the fishery ours and not chinas personal pantry
