Commercials- pinhook only.
Then you would have a small range of fish being continuously taken out of the mix. You'd be better off with a Maine slot limit, say 22-25, increase your hits on males that die before 28 inches and a one fish over say 40 ish. Spread the load a bit.

Paul - I agree partially with what you are saying. My feelings are if we take off so much pressure on these fish there will be even less to eat. Fix the food problem - which is not just for bass but for cod, blues, little tunny, and even big tunny. Fix the food problem will go a long way to fixing the fish. THEN allocation can be better addressed.
