The print and electronic media have recently given sharp focus to deep seated problems in our local fisheries. This is as it should be, but sometimes emotions get in the way of facts, leading to distortions and calls for one or another course of political action. User conflicts are and have been the norm of exploitation of fish stocks for decades, as one type of technology or another group of fishermen apply additional pressure to a particular stock of the resource. Anyone following the international scene will no doubt have noted the conflicts on the Grand Banks of New Foundland, the Georges Bank, Iceland and the North Sea. The problem is related to the nature of the resource and nature of Man, the hunter predator species. The problem is simple and complicated at he same time.
