See attached photo: a popular beach in Malibu, and the commercial super boat with crew of four(!) collecting pots just behind the surf zone! No wonder we haven't seen a legal bug in that area in decades. But when the spiny lobster price is $100/lb in China, that's what we get...

This is exactl how I perceive the situation. Imagine how many large bugs there would be, if hundreds of thousands of smaller bugs were allowed to live and grow bigger!!
