In my opening remarks, I spoke about an area F fishery and an area H fishery.
Area F is around Haida Gwaii, and it takes me about a week to get there. We can get to area H within about a day, but to travel to the mouth of the river where the opening was that year, took two days from my location.
When I say we changed over gear, we changed over to our scallop fishery gear, which is a local fishery. The gear takes us two to three days to swap out.
Having an eight-hour notice doesn't even allow me to change the gear in my boat.
