Commercial fishing closes along the coast April 1st. through June from P-town north. It may be already closed futher south. We have what are known as rolling closers. Some places will close and other areas open up. I don't have my paper work with me about the closed areas, " I'm on vacation"
So there shouldn't be any gill netters on the bank after April 1st.
In a couple of weeks when water temps rise there should be some good recreational fishing. With out the netters the cod will have a good chance of hanging around longer.

Also starting on the 1st recreational fishing will be able to keep the ten fish per person limit instead of the winter limit of five.
