Looks to be as simple as that. And, if you find, great. My advice, keep it off here. Always seems to start a bunch of b/s every year.
On another note, what did surprise me was the statement in the digest talking about wreckfish, "Illegal to possess, no open season. Like, how do you reel up a wreckfish in 700'+ water while fishing for tiles, barrelfish, etc. and throw the fish back dead. Makes no freakin sense.

I couldn't agree with you more. I read the same exact statement on the NJ Digest. Only mentions Striped Bass.
