they don't care whether you eat fish. they're throwing the nets regardless.

Common misconception. It's simple supply and demand. Do you think people would be destroying the seas if nobody would pay them for it?

supply and demand is a theory about price discovery. it has no bearing on this discussion.

If no one ate fish anymore, would it still be profitable to fish in an industrial style?

I don't think that's likely to happen. do you have another method that might be effective?
