Productivity goes up and down in the ecosystem. In the past we didn't look at that and we created horrible problems when we kept fishing at one level and assumed a stable state in the ocean. We all saw the horrible costs this caused us. I think we need two things in the southern gulf. We need to make sure we don't do something irreversible. Second, we need a bit of time to look at the causes of low productivity and high mortality. If it turns out to be seals, we need to do something about them.
