Commercial fishing in the USVI

I have quite a few friends who are making their living fishing. Here is an article that is supposed to "severely limit" fishing in the USVI. I wonder what the opinions of the people here are? I believe if it is enacted that the price of local fish will have to go up to compensate for the reduced amount of fishing.

Here is an article about it:

It seems that these new regulations will also effect PR and I wonder if the BVI, or even farther south islands, will take up some of the slack. I know that the BVI has become more "territorial" of it's waters and wonder what more restrictions in the BVI will come from the USA's stance on fishing?
