Hawaii longliners are buying quota from Micronesia, and fishing that quota in Hawaiian waters. That is what Micronesia has to do with us. I don't think it's right. Marine protected areas like Papahanaumokuakea will actually benefit fishermen in the long-term. They allow a refuge for fish to get larger. Larger/older female fish, produce more eggs that are of higher quality. There is solid and sound peer-reviewed science that shows this. I think people should be buying local fish, and that Hawaii shouldn't be exporting it at the rate they are. Only 37% of Hawaii's commercial fish stays here (http://www.uhero.hawaii.edu/news/view/236). 

The 5% "supplemented" fish you're talking about it already being caught in other areas of Hawaii. That 5% doesn't disappear from the allotted quota, it is just fished in our EEZ or in high seas near Hawaii. They have no problem meeting their quota, and then some!
