No, I believe and have always believed they go hand in hand. The first thing you have to understand is that the recreational fishery generates $1.4 billion and harvests less than 10% of the total run. So its impact is minimal and it leaves a large amount of stock available for commercial harvest. Why would you not take advantage of that?
With proper management, one need not necessarily infringe upon the other. Together they're worth more than either one on its own.
