Great info Jim. Mustad is the world's largest hook manufacturer and like most of them their commercial business is larger than the recreational sector.
I also wasn't aware of the fact that they are also the world leader in "longlining systems". The day this form of fishing gets banned worldwide will be wonderful.
There is a new video on longlining that the RFA will be distributing to every member of congress, state governors and presidents of various countries in Central and South America.
I spoke with the producer last week and he thinks it will be a bombshell and the RFA will be offerring it for sale at a very low price. I will post more info as I get it but the important thing is for the general population to see it, not just recreational fishermen. Schools, Churches and other organizations should be given the opportunity to view the truth.
