The co-managers have historically resisted in-season mgt here. Maybe it's time to try.



When asked if in-season management could be used as a proactive measure, their position has always been "and who's going to pay for that"?

They didn't hesitate the last week of September, funny how that works. We'll see if Ron has the balls to tell the gillnetters no. I'm not holding my breath.
