It sure would be nice to see a 1 fish @ 36" limit for all recs. & some corresponding equivalent for the comms. Coastwide!
I simply can't understand this 24" limit. Even if people are just after meat, and don't give a rats *## about the fishery, they should compare the fillets of a 24" vs. 36" fish & then maybe they would be in favor of a one fish 36" limit. I bet an average 36" fish fillet has 5x the meat of a 24" fish fillet. I can't say for sure, because I've never even imagined filleting a 24" baby. Are people greedy, ignorant or is it just that today the only day that matters.
