Summer King Quota already announced!?!

Post by Once and Future »

Abundance index for 2016 of 2.06 for a summer troll quota of some 260,000. 2015 AI was 1.45. Somebody thought it was 2.47 back in 2014.

Last year's announcement didn't come until June 26. Will wonders never cease? The world of politics. Wow.

Actually, we went over by something like 100k last year,which when all was settled and done, put us a lot closer to where we should have been, but still shy. This year's quota though quite a bit bigger on the face, only actually gives about 14k more than what we wound up putting in last year. With projections and indicators, I'd be willing to guess we'll still come in a good deal shy of what we should have gotten, once all the tallies are in

There is a lot of catching ability and hungry trollers currently. I hope ADFG can manage for a August opener,but its always a wildcard on these higher abundance season.
