The thing to remember is if we are keeping fish is that ultimately we will keep many of the large fish and fish that could have become larger and leave us catching planters.
Look at the berry - how many fish do you really catch out of the slot? They had to impose it to protect the fish size people actually wanted to catch or many people would be keeping 16"-20" fish all day...the ones we all go up there to c&r now.
I wish the state would impose some more regulations on the size of fish to be kept as really...is it the sport or the meat that keeps us fishing?
