MCHH 149: Pacific Ocean Fisheries Recovers, Fishery Re-Opens

It's a good thing when one fish recovers from years of unregulated fisheries, but when multiple fish recover after years of closing down a fishery...that's a HUGE conservation success. So why are they re-opening the fishery? The MCHH crew discusses the story and why, as scientists and conservationists, we are hesitant about re-opening the fishery.  Link to article: https://www.marketwatch.com/story/health-of-west-coast-sole-ocean-perch-and-more-rebound-in-rare-conservation-home-run-2019-12-26?fbclid=IwAR1MHzqLdh4fiTcK_-Vjd2RHSxT9uTCxe-37uLFrnbjjhu8KYbJ6U-kqg8E Do you think they should re-open the fishery?
