Ignore.
No I totally agree. Even the nuances of how we gill net in the industry (I’m not govnt or involved in any of this) - frequency of checking gill nets (every 2 hours vs every 24 hours) increases survivability. The report used to demonstrate FIN and FSI in the survey shows numbers of 1-2% direct mortality, which are most likely correct. The photos shown at the beginning of the video totally misrepresent what gill netting is.

And angling surveys, sure, great. Who even wants to dedicate time to a meticulous program? Accuracy matters, and the general public doesn’t even care enough to do a program like this. Totally unrealistic.

2x on ignore.
