Is there any chance the recreational guys can sue and take a page out of the environmental playbook.
Say the commercial guys are catching too many and threatening the fish, therefore it needs to be protected?
Try to shutdown the whole fishery for everyone in order to get commercial guys to the table and force nmfs to do an accurate survey.

That's going to be a steep hill to climb. I think it's possible, but unlikely to reach the desired outcome. Who would pay the attorney fees? Maybe you could build a coalition with some boat builders.
Showing legal standing to claim direct harm may be difficult. Then you have to worry about a judge killing it.
