Unfortunately its true... if the quota is increased, do you think most of those financially ailing fishermen will go out and catch that extra 10,000 lb of fish? No- they're going to sell it to one of the high line boats, make some quick cash and their boat will remain tied up at the dock.
I'm sure some would go out and make more money by landing the fish, but the lure of easy money is too great, especially to those who have already sold large portions of their quota.
BP has it exactly right on this one. Let the system run its course for a full year (at least) before making a call on it.
