Of coarse none of this will impact the commercial sector. It will be business as usual!

That’s the whole point! Collapse the stock so they can justify closing the fishery for many years bankrupting party/charter boats/tackle shops etc. while the commercial guys continue business as usual while greasing the pockets of their politicians!
If someone else can come up with a logical reason of why they would force the recreational angler to harvest all females while ignoring the science and research, then I am all ears!
