It’s the new dolphin-safe tuna standards. Even though not on porpoise, dolphins get can caught in huge fish trawling nets, be unable to surface, and drown — and nobody eats poor Flipper so it’s deemed a tragic waste. Still, unless they are banning private nets per se (rather than by type of fish caught), this sounds like overdoing it.
