1 fish 36" or make it a game fish and strictly catch and release..

Which brings up a rather interesting question. I wonder how many of these "so called hardcore stripermen" would keep fishing, buying gear, boats, slips, etc, etc, if it were catch and release like in the 80s?

I remember in 89 thru 92, 3 of us would have Deep Hole all to ourselves on the midnight low tides. Couldn't keep anything so guys just stopped fishing. It was GREAT!!!!
