IMO, for bios to be able to call the shots for a given district or region they will need to have a clear long term mandate from the commission and leadership as to what goals to manage for.

“I don’t want you hunting this outfit.”
All I know that I had an experience with OnX and private property lines where I was bird hunting a creek bottom and had a rancher’s fence a hundred yards or so in front of me. Looked at OnX as I headed towards the fence and assumed that the line was where the rancher had his fence. Never...- Gerald Martin

I’m not sure what solution you have in mind in relation to the problem you outline above but if the conclusion is regional caps we considered that in our discussions as we formulated our general season proposal.
