Re: 2017 Fluke Regulations Not Looking Good

Think about it, tournaments with combined 5 fish weigh in and possibly even 3 fish combined weight will be a thing of the past. Feel sorry for Party and Charter boats when we go to 2 fish at 21 inches, you know it's coming. As I said until there's representation of recreational interests taken into consideration it's self regulation from here on out. Especially when you see 12 inch fluke fillets at the market throughout the entire summer for $14.99 lb.. &%$% NOAA!
