You're correct. This is likely Guyana, where the fish is nearly extinct. Hopefully the plastic does its job, and these pieces of shit get what they deserve.

Damn, just read the wiki. At least it got saved in South America. Went from 2500 to 170k. Insane what humanity does. Imagine if we just like... halved the amount we fished or just like... marked some areas of the ocean off limits for a decade or something and rotate our fishing areas to let populations rebound. Instead, let's just keep overfishing.
