You're thinking of State sea bass bag limits, the federal limit is 15 fish, and there are no federal limits on tautog!

IMHO it unconsionable for a magazine that caters to recreational fisherman should suggest more restrictive bag limits for some fishermen, especially when they are avocating for loosening bag limits on other recreational fishermen, and all on the same species.
Mike,I didn't have a question but I do see the point that you are trying to make. Like it or not,a more practical limit benefits all involved in the fishery. Shortsighted folks like yourself do nothing for future generations of anglers and for some reason($) some people fail to recognize this. Hogs get fat,pigs get slaughtered.
