Snapper are like ants in the gulf and are more plentiful than almost all species in the Gulf

I live half my life offshore and see maybe 1-3 boats on weekends fishing and 1 out of 5 weekdays (maybe)

You don't see a ton of sea turtles but I have seen a lot over the years




You can not use explosives with in 10 miles of a sea turtle (I think)

I think that snapper were here along time before there were platforms so that can't be the argument to keep them, but also I think that they thrive off a platform by the ecosystem an established platform has. I know that is a contradictory statement, but what do our opinions matter in politics involved with this anyway.
