I don't think that's what he's saying. Here is what I think he is saying:

6 guys show up for open boat. When it's time to reel em up and head in, 1 guy has his limit while 5 guys got skunked. In the OP's case, 5 guys are going home with something, while the guy who did all the catching got shafted with 1/6 of what he caught.

I can see this policy being the norm for canyon trips or trips where you are otherwise trolling most of the day when the boat works together. But for when you are individually fishing (like for stripers, fluke) and skill can come into play, I disagree with the equal sharing policy.
