I can on most days catch 20 inch fish without any problem at all but I scoff at anyone who would suggest HOURS of catching 20 pounders was a regular occurrance. Sure there are highliners in every port but I have caught a bunch of 36 inch fish that were not 20 pounds.

That being said I really wish they would push the mark of a keeper back up another 8 or 10 inches. It just seems I caught alot more 35" fish when the limit was 36". I guess it's like deer hunting. One man's button buck is another man's trophy. Good luck this weekend whatever your goal might be..
