Re: NW Hawaiian Islands to be off-limits
The single biggest impact this will have in our actual everyday lives here in Hawaii will be that much of the fish we enjoy will be imported rather than from Hawaiian waters. Even though there were only nine vessels licensed to fish there (with little possibility of ever over-fishing the area) these operators put a significant amount of some of our favorite fish on the table including opakapaka and onaga.
