It appears the trollers are fishing in 29-9 and 29-6. Seems to contradict trying to reduce impacts for the SRKW'S?
I don't think they'd be in 29-9 as even that outside border of 29-9 is along the shallows. 29-6 for sure though as most of 29-6 is out into the deeps....
Realize that the sporties ( lower priority on socs) were also free to go into 29-6 as of August 1st and fish socs, right in time for the Soc opening. That apparently was done to give sporties some more opportunity for soc fishing (especially for those fishers coming out of southern areas like Canoe Pass) This all despite SRKW management measures for that area that had it closed for fishing prior to Aug 1st. At the SRKW public meetings with SFAB this spring this was something that SFAB/SFAC agreed to request for DFO to consider for 29-6.
