Officials: Northern red drum stock not overfished but fishing mortality rising
Division officials summarized the 2024 benchmark assessment finding the northern red drum stock is not overfished and not experiencing overfishing, while warning of concerning trends including increasing fishing mortality driven mainly by recreational fishing.

Rationalism can account for this as a collective action problem
Its actually very similar to the tragedy of the commons. I.e. its the same reason overfishing happens.

Author Rose George dives into the dark depths of the fishing industry
The global fishing industry is plagued by problems. Overfishing remains a severe threat, while production and consumption have increased to record levels. Illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing continues to thrive, thereby disrupting marine ecosystems and attempts to manage our oceans sustainably. All the while, climate change is warming the seas, shifting marine populations and shrinking fish body size. It's amid this background that journalist and author Rose George wrote "Every Last Fish: A Deep Dive into the World of Fishes and Fishing" (Granta Books, 2025). George had previously written an award-winning book on the shipping industry, "Deep Sea and Foreign Going: Inside Shipping, the Invisible Industry that Brings You 90% of Everything," (Granta Books, 2013) and had become more aware of the significant issues facing the fishing industry. For the book, she traveled across continents, joining trawlers, fishers and aquaculturists (fish farmers) to learn more about the problems they face, while delving into fish intelligence and welfare with scientists. Finally, George also reveals some of the atrocities that take place at sea, including slavery and murder, as she tells Live Science in this interview about the book. "You can't police the sea; it's too big," she said. "Every Last Fish"...

Though habitat loss, warming, and commercial overfishing are all orders of
magnitude worse than sea lions, you can’t fix any of those by shooting things. The park service does culls but not enough to sate MGP’s bloodlust.

Unfortunately, so can the first one (eg blaming tropical countries for deforestation or overfishing, rather than pointing out inequalities in consumption patterns and effects of international trade on land and sea use decisions).
But the first one obscures both cause and effect.
