Glad to hear that you discourge the limit. The only time it is really necessary to limit out is on split charters. If it is one family their is no way all that meat is going to get used. Most will be in the garbage. One charter I mated for with a buddy we got into good sized fish at that tip across the bay. They took home 8 fish with 4 of them being between 30 and 38 pounds. Big fish running that day. Probably left with 130 pounds of fillet. I doubt it all got used. But they wanted to keep. It is hard to break that mentality.

Sounds like it is stupid fishing down there right now. Guess all those bass will be heading up into the inlets and rivers to do there thing.
