Not from way back in the day but 20 years ago. But it’s still an “old offshore memory” in that they will never open up this fishery again in our, whomever is reading this, lifetime. A little unusual in that this Mako was an immature female. Most of my Mako’s, particularly the Fall run, have been male, but this was a June harvest where I believe you are more likely to catch a female.

It may take 50 years for the stock to rebuild to sustainable levels.
