Commercials don't deserve all the credit.

The obscene exploitation rates on PNW salmon stocks in northern intercept fisheries happens in recreational as well as commercial mixed-stock fisheries.

It would sure be nice to catch those fish at home.

Like ff02, I realize that terminal fisheries are just a pipedream at this point in time. Institutional inertia is hard to overcome even when it's clear that drastic change is what's best for the resource.
