You mean that all their "reports" and "calculations" over the past 5 years (and more) were nothing but expert guesstimations?
Boy, I'd be shocked if it weren't the status quo for the industry.
One year they say we're having a banner year, next we on the verge of collapse. Maybe if we had people in charge that didn't have a personally vested interest in just keeping their job, regardless of how horribly they perform it, maybe then we'd have a shot of saving the industry.
Until then it will be just more of the same of sorry story, one we'll be telling our kids ("You know, I can remember when we "used" to be able to fish for free and keep fish to eat, but now we need to pay to look at the ocean and buy fish from another country that fishes the same waters we can't!"
