The sport guys haven't taken the hit too? What about the 33% of Halibut charter permits that were cut this year? That was a lot of families that lost there main source of income...and a lot of guys with a million in overhead that isn't selling because nobody can get a new charter permit. Not to mention that sport fishermen lost almost 50% of their catch as well, and now they are trying to make the rest of the state lose nearly half of their catch and reassign it to the commercial guys. I agree that sport fishermen should take a hit too, but I think PBH has a much better idea of reducing possession or annual limit than cutting the daily bag in half.
What makes you think it will be for one year? Has it been for one year in the southeast? NO! Why would you believe that they are going to raise it to 2...when right now they are trying to drop it from 2 to 1 everywhere else?
