Commercials

I believe it starts on Wednesday...so go drop your nets next to their gear while you can before they bait up.
They can drop their gear but the doors must be wired open...as Greg said, it's all about establishing their turf and getting a jump on getting their gear in the water. Some of these guys have over 300 traps that they run and there are even a few that run up to 1000 traps.
Once the new reg package goes through, the commercial guys will get even more time to drop their traps pre season, and they will probably be limited to 300 traps per permit with the ability to stack two permits.
It's nice to see them finally get some gear limits although their catch is still unlimited!
