the point i was TRYING to make was that APPARENTLY they were doing it behind closed doors, as in telling the public they are very against longlining and trying to be very supportive in conservation and then selling long line equipment and keeping it hush hush.
and no i dont think they are selling longliners 50Ws. thats not what i said
the reason i posted it on the forum was to see if other people were aware of this and to see if it is in fact accurate.
