You guys are close but I feel slightly off base.. Area 7 is going to by and large be closing permanently due to the SRKW sh!tstorm, so they are saying "No recs will be fishing on northbound fish, but commercial fisheries will still remain above the law"

And I would imagine that adding the language about PS Sockeye is a distraction so that when they wipe out the Norther Straits fisheries they will offer the HOPE of inside sockeye fisheries as a "carrot", but we all know those runs will under-escape annually so there will never be a surplus deemed fishable. But hey THEY TRIED! Right?
