Limiting the use of the resource will happen one way or another, whether is through government control or mother nature not providing us more fish. Pretending that eating less fish is going to make a difference in the long term is ignoring the fact that most people aren't going to follow your advice. Consumption of expensive foods is growing around the world, so if demand for fish is lowered in North America, that will drive down the price and allow people in poorer countries to consume more fish, resulting in an economic equilibrium. The best thing we can have is very high domestic demand for fish, which will bring large earnings to the domestic fishing industry, and motivate them to secure their livelyhoods in the long term by pressuring the government to take action against less ethical foreign fisheries.
