Louie... Since Bristol Bay is a 100% retention fishery no C/R, the only thing I can figure is they were testing the mortality of the drop out rate. I think NMFS calculates this at about 4% of the total catch and I believe it is accounted for, personally I would have put the mortality rate at 100% for these fish. Still not sure what these guys were trying to prove here but as far as I'm concerned they failed miserably..
