You're 'one fish a day' only works if everyone follows the rules. When you can get $2000+ for one fish then why not catch two, or three, or even more if no one is looking.

What people don't get that the entire operation is compartmentalized. Fisherman have such limited time and tied to the resources at disposal. Would they love to see some of that retail money? Yes. But they have to get back on the water and catch more fish that's why their margins are setup thay way. Enter the middlemen, they're your fish mongers and distributors. They get the product to into the retail at everyone's convenience. They pay the price off the boat bear the costs of storaging and shipping. Some may even process it. That leaves the consumer and the level convenience they get. Ordering it already prepared as a meal or ingredient. You want $4 p/lb you gotta take the whole fish or don't bother.
