commercial opening can essentially shut down the amount of fresh fish entering the system meaning you'll get to play with the stale fish already there and whatever ones do get passed the nets

I got into a chromer yesterday, but I think I was lucky.  We checked the mouth of the river and there were 4 commercial vessels loading up with pinks.

Wow the ratio of stale to chromers is pretty high.

Yes, but I was expecting worse with Commercial opening and the 14 other people I could hit with a roll cast all around. But, I saw NO chrome out of the fish the other guys kept, and I saw 2 fresh chrome that guys had on, but lost. So the ratio is indeed VERY low.
