Until all use groups can agree to disagree and find a common ground that everyone can live with the fish will be doomed. The people who utilize the resource need to be part of the solution they are all part of the problem. Recs, Captains, Comms alike need to come up with a plan and police themselves.
Any singular portion of the utilization group that abuses the resource needs to have suitable punishment. Regardless of who it is.
The managers bow to public opinion they have to. Until all groups get together and are realistic about what to expect from the fishery we will continue this cycle. It is obvious managers are reactive as opposed to pro active. That is the nature of the game for them. They will not implement changes until certain check points are met. At those points it is generally too late.
