That's not so simple. Subsistence fishing is the sole means of livelihood and self-sustenance for a significant global population. It provides essential food security and supports local economies, particularly in coastal and island communities. This traditional practice ensures families have direct access to nutritious seafood, often using simple, low-cost methods. It is crucial for maintaining resilience in the face of environmental and economic challenges.

There's only a very small amount of humans living off fishing. If those were the only ones, there would be no problems. These people do not justify any fishing for people who don't need fish to survive.
