The increase in the number of smolts has come from area's sportsmen fish and have been placed in the safe area's for the comercial fleet, so what part of this bill did you all pay? It will be interesting to see how this all works out. The biggest problem I have seen so far is that it has not got any nets off the mainstream. Lest i forget, The CCA and others are hard at work trying to change the laws regarding your gill nets. The dinasaurs have been gone a long time now..........Chuck G
