Mass Fluke Regs this will get you pissed
This was approved see how fast they fill their quota & we get shut down early because of it 16" are you kidding me??? I can't remember the last time I got a Fluke up there at 16" this is insane.
Fluke For 2014, the ASMFC adopted a regional approach for managing the coast’s recreational fluke fisheries with the intent of providing more equity in harvest opportunities among states. While initially grouped with Rhode Island and facing a size limit increase, MarineFisheries was able to successfully lobby for Massachusetts to be treated as its own region enabling status quo regulations for 2014. For 2014 the following recreational limits will apply for fluke: Mode Season Bag Limit Minimum Size Private Angler May 22 – September 30 5 fish 16 inches For-Hire May 22 – September 30 5 fish 16 inches

Re: Mass Fluke Regs this will get you pissed
Just goes to show the squeaky wheel gets the grease. I'm sure MA has a huge fishing lobby interest and they fought hard to get the most favorable regs. Just like NY threatening a law suit to force regionalization. You fight you get.

What really make me laugh is That I don't even think I caught a fluke that went 16" last year.

Looks like New Jersey is the only state that did not stand up for itself. Our politicians suck!
