The commercials in Alaska are no different than anywhere else, they will take and take as long as they can with no regarde for the resource, they cannot afford to care.
The problem with Alaska is they have it all to pound on until many move down the coast, they get to pick on everyones fish along with theirs. Add subsistance fishing (which is a joke and just another word for commercial fishing) and you have a major fish kill every year that is un-managed even at the basic level. The state talks a good story but are under the commercials total control.
