Re: NOAA sets fluke reduction harvest for 2016:
I will also enter my 7 cents. The rec guys don't get out slot of days. When they do they are forced to throw back fish that are mortally wounded because of size limits. How many sea bass do you throw back while fluking ? How many guys fishing with bait have to throw back gut hooked fish. How many sea bass come up from 90 feet with there guts hanging out? Now on to the commercial by catch how many fish do they kill as a by catch ? Imagine if they could bring them to market and sell them. They would only have to fish probably half the days they do now to make the same money. Slot this !!!! Take what you want but be smart about the resource. Soon we won't even be fishing because these fkrs will ban boats and fishing poles.
