Indeed. They have never been able to accurately count how many fish rec's take. The methods they use to estimate the catch is very error prone and they admit this but since this is "the best available data" this is what they use.
IMO bad data is actually worse then no data.
Have you ever been contacted on how many fluke you caught and how often you fish?
As a pragmatic argumentI don't see them shutting it down it is just way to popular of a past time and they could not stand the heat if they did. IMO they will either make new rules and/or mod the limits.
