In the article they quoted wdfg personal saying that they really don't know the extent of the population in the south sound. Now to me how can they warrant a commercial fishery. In the areas such as Quartermaster (where I live) or Wollochet Bay even with a 30 pot limit will completely wipe out these small isolated fisheries within a week. You lay 100 pots in Quartermaster and it would be over in a day or two.I think in reality considering pot loss HEHE and bait and beer the natives will find this fishery economically unfeasible
