Year after year after year the menhaden fishery is attacked by certain special interest groups with no real fact based science to back up their assertions. They count on people not looking further past catchy headlines with buzz words and just agreeing without truly researching the assertions. The actual science says that the fishery is healthy and moving in the right direction. It is unfortunate that a few people will choose to press their personal agendas at the expense of a whole industry.  I hope this group is able to see past this blatant disrespect for actual science and the men and women who actually have the best interest of the Bay in mind and put this disgusting petition out of its misery.
