As the creatures travel and feed on time table the concept that restraining WA fisheries alone will have much of a impact is likely wrong. The condition of the animals ( right down to naming them ) is so well documented that there is no place for any agency to hide. Any recovery plan will need to start in AK & BC and come South. This the first of the great pain that is coming around mixed stock marine fisheries from CA to AK.

The jig is up so to speak.
