Re: This Week in Fisheries Management, on Facebook Nevertheless...
I'd like to see a slot fish under 28 and one 28 to 30 something but I don't think that is going to be approved since regs like that will be deemed to fall outside the 25% reduction in recreational landings that they are mandating nationally.
The reason I like the slot is for our fall fishery when the rats show up and they are the best eating. The reason I like the 28 to 30 something is becuase I don't like to see the big 40 plus breeders taken out of commission. Take a picture and release it. But that's just me.
Now one way we might be able to have our cake and occasionally eat it and be within the landings, might be to have a fish 28 to 30 something and have one trophy fish tag per angler to take one fish per year over what ever the 30 something mark is.
