I like the theory dont get me wrong just trying to bring up another point of view. Its almost like an IF nothing goes wrong with these fish theory?

Factor in a few metric tons of lost fish for the nets off nc and I'd be more onboard with the theory.
The losses are impossible to calculate, but if every year class is fished with the same pressure, lets say 70% of what's available dies before it reached 50# (I'm sure it's more like 85%) if year A has 100M and year B has 300M... you still have 3 times the leftovers from B to A. Whoa, that's a lot of thinking for friday afternoon.... knap time ni ni
