Thank you all for all the "welcomes"!

Tog- yes the 8 flounder is correct and unlimited yellow tails is also true but there is an issue with that: My boat gets about 3 to 5 "real yellow tails"/year so I just treat them like black backs as part of the regular count. The best part of that reasoning is that the EPO's (Environtmental Police Officers) in The Boston Harbor area, for the most part, couldn't tell a bb from a yt from a sea dab. For a big day that you limit out anyway is it really worth the potential hassle?
What we do see every day is black back (winter) flounder that have some yellow near their tail. Inevitably, someone on the boat pronounces it "a yellow tail"! I included a picture with the two species side by side (bottom is the YT)........JC
