I'm not sure where you are coming up with some of this but in my opinion the health of PS Lingcod has been very well mitigated for using the selective harvest slot limits. Ask anyone who fished the islands back in the 80's, lots of lings, but not a lot of large ones. The slot limits have done a great job bolstering a healthy population of LARGE lings available for harvest.
