Based on NMFS's stock assessment, a 4 day season would have led to overfishing. The method they use to determine what poundage constitutes a good quota has been the issue for a decade now. They claimed recreational exceeded quota during a 9 day season that averaged 8 foot seas a couple years ago. They dictate what constitutes overfishing based on who is willing to send lawyers to annoy the piss out of them.

I remember reading a report in late August saying only 65% or some number has been caught of the allotment and there were only a handfull of days left.
the NMFS assessment is plain wrong and designed to say the fishery is over fished no matter how long the season is open.
