I disagree with this and the reason why is, people can pick up traps twice on a day regardless if overnight fishing is alowed or not. the regs apply 125 a day no matter how many times you've pulled or set or left your traps for however long . you already cannot pull or set traps after sunset and before sunrise. so I don't see the problem here. if guys can only get out after work or set later they should be able to pick up again in the morning. Simple as that I think overnight soakes are always worse anyway strong believer in that they escape over time. Plus other creatures have more time to venture in.

I couldn't agree more with you on this. The diff between overnight and 4 hours soaks? Nominally the answer is zero. Im a firm believer that they come and go as well. My gopro only goes down to 160ft before the pressure turns the power switch off lol. I have only found one video on this. Guy in alaska. Tough for them to get inside the trap in heavy currents also.
Small black cod in this video? looks like it
