I never stated that I ever fished in that area.  I stated the fact that fresh fish prices would become too costly for local people to enjoy raw fish like poke or sashimi.  Like the first missionaries who came to these islands, your efforts at cultural genocide by denying local people their indigenous food is akin to how Native Americans were treated by the white man when put on reservations on land with no water and expect to survive.  Sorry, some of us local folks went to college and took courses in ethnic studies to learn not to be subjugated by the new white ruling class.

In the name of environmental protection, you seek to deny local people of their sources of food.  Like the bill banning ivory sales in Hawaii that was passed, local Chinese, Japanese and Hawaiian families become criminals for possessing cultural artifacts passed on from our forefathers.  It is a joke to believe this law will stop the slaughter of African animals. The largest market place for them are in China/SEA.
