Don't sharpen knives to cut snapper size, quota

Who's actually behind this nonsense about reducing the recreational snapper quota. Is it the 'Gummint” or the big commercial rape and pillage corporates?
If the large number of undersize snapps I've been feeding represents the health of the fishery, the future looks pretty bright. We should increase the quota, 10 sounds better, one per finger would be much easier to count.
May as well reduce the size while we are at it, as I am fed up with those little sods, and unlike the big commercial thugs, I've been feeding them a small fortune of expensive bait for long enough. And if you are like Brian and can't get a feed off a 27cm snapper you're obviously a crap filleter or a guts.
We would be wise to be demanding more, rather than negotiating for less, to maintain what is our ‘God given right' to go and get a feed for the family. Sharpen your knives fishers.

Why dont the government just do what they did before! Print and distribute a ruler that is not to scale! So you think you have got a 25cm snapper when its really 30cm.
