I do not know how it is run here but I understand the whitefish fishery on dore lake SK has a bi catch limit as well and if they hit the bi-catch limit the season is shut down even if the whitefish limit has not been hit.
There should be plenty of space for a properly run commercial whitefish fishery.
Hey maybe they need to increase the whitefish take to make room in the bio-mass for pike and walleye. you need to remember any lake can only hold so many pounds of fish. it cannot hold an infinite amount of fish.
I also know some of the fishers at Dore they ain't exactly swimming in money, and I too would not take their lively hood away, too much of that crap happening as it is.
