It majority of the fish i have been catching this year are from 2011. I have been catching a ton of fish in the 20-26" range. If those fish don't smarten up they will be easy pickings the next couple years. Wouldn't it make sense to up the size limit to protect that class in the next few years? The 1 at 28" is a smart move right now.
I am concerned that the 2011 class will suffer a pretty good whooping over the next couple years. It looks like it will be able to sustain a good amount of pressure but i would hate for it to get beat up too bad.
While the 2015 YOY looks pretty good i would say do more to protect what we have swimming around now so we can hopefully have a few more banner years in the future. Looking at the graph wouldn't it suggest that the moratorium years helped produce the 93,96 and 01 classes? More breeders making it combined with favorable conditions=success right?
