Doesn't make it legal or acceptable
And high time fisheries stamp it out ............do a Brett Carter on the skipper of the vessel. Legally they can arrest the vessel until the appropriate fine is paid and given the operating costs to have a ship unable to leave it would be paid in a blink and you could put money the practice of fishing would cease immediately

Don't want to be overly sensitive
But when I travel overseas yes I love to wet a line BUT I make sure that I follow the rules of the country I am in. You can't have double standards.

just remember that on a lot
just remember that on a lot of them f.o,c, ships it is the only time they get fresh food.the crew go fishing in every port around the world and i dont think they would do much damage to the fish stocks.
