SW,

Yes, it would, but a sizable surplus of wild coho was forecast, so the commercial fleet is reasonably entitled to a share of those (under present policy and law). If it were Puget Sound, when reported catches approached the allocation, no more open fishing periods would be scheduled. In Gray's Harbor, it seems like a fishing schedule is adopted, and then they stay with it regardless of catch. Doc's probably got the records on this, however.
