Another thing about the slot... I love the way it works in NC for drum. It is great to see tons of big fish caught and all released. I can't think of a time I've heard any complaim about not being able to keep bigger fish. The drum slot is 1 fish 18-27". The data indicate that stocks have gone up since instituting the slot. If I had a vote it would be the small slot and nothing over 27" for bass coastwide. The problem I have with 1 @ 36" is that, while it reduces the overall take as there aren't as many fish that size caught, it targets the breeders.
