The catch trend in Maine follows the catch trend throughout the coast. Both are down about 50% from 2008-2012. How many of those Maine fish leave and get hammered on the trip back south? They aren't all Kennebunk fish and it isn't an isolated population. Even the harvest data is inconclusive. Bad yoy in the chesapeake would limit slot size fish in Maine.
