is my reasoning about wrong choices right?
Ha, I didn't even notice that you wrote things.
Next time, use quotes. Or colors. Or put your responses in boldface. Or ... something.

Mostly very good.

* There's no problem with "them" in (b). (It works in the same way as "their" in the correct answer.)

* In (c) and (d) -- in addition to the stuff you found -- "its" is also wrong, because "monkfish" is plural here. (If it were singular, it would have "the" in front of it.)

Otherwise all good.
Ron has been teaching various standardized tests for 20 years.

To summarize... You thought of one interpretation that works, and another that doesn't.
To that I say:
Ok, you found an interpretation that works! Where's the problem? Just ignore the interpretation that doesn't work.

2/
In this context, there's no doubt that "monkfish" is plural. If you don't understand why, just replace it with something like "shark(s)".
There are no limits on the size of shark that can be caught. --> Nope.

It's "sharks". Not "shark". So "monkfish" here is like "sharks".

Thanks for your generosity in giving credit for a half of my thought. But I think both interpretations of mine didn’t work. Your examples remind me about the context: yes, only the plural of monkfish makes sense here. I thought about the word without context, so different perspectives appeared.
"monkfish" is plural here. (If it were singular, it would have "the" in front of it.)
yeah, this simple technique is useful. No over-thingking!
