More COVID relief for halibut, sablefish fleet?

Here's a letter asking for emergency action to "allow those individuals that have IFQ in their own names to be exempt from being on a vessel when their quota is being fished."

Band-Aid for a bullet wound - dismal prices, increased regulatory cost burdens and a fishery on the verge of collapse...but sure rent a skipper will help.

Leasing will help a few people. The main reason fish were left in the water was the low prices and bad fishing. A lot of boats didn’t pay expenses so they found better things to do.
