It IS so much more than a slippery slope........

It is ILLEGAL, planter!

In FL, if you keep a snook against any and all of the FM guidelines, then DEM is empowered by a zero tolerance policy that gives them the authority to take everything attached to the fish. i.e. your rod&reel, boat, boat trailer, vehicle, and throw YOU in jail should you resist or if the violations are egregious enuff to warrant your arrest!

i am unfamiliar with the tolerance positions of NE DEM with regard to undersized Stripers, but as MikeP said ~~crabs, togs, and eeeeeels gotsta eat too. your victim will not be wasted, should you return it to its briny depths. why risk a fine.................or, worse??

"The first condition of happiness is that the connection
between man and nature shall not be broken."~~ Leo Tolstoy

Tight Lines, and
Happy Hunting to ALL!
