Nets and slot limits

I have a couple of questions and one assumption.

The assumption first, and then the question. Are not most fish that are gilnetted dead when the net is retrieved. If they are, how and for what reason would commercial fsihermen release dead fish to satisfy a growth limits different from wat we have now?

Macojoe that was an extraordinarily well-said and simple corn analogy.

I think slot limits such as the one in Maine would work.

And when I catch my sixty pounder on the Vineyard on October 9th shortly before midnight on dogfish bar I will release it.
