Here is the RI reg. Its pretty vague. I think Cowhunter is basically correct, however it does say "per calendar day". But the key is possess.
If I keep two, then bring them home or give them away. I no longer "possess" them. Per how the reg is written, you can go out and get more.
12.1 Striped Bass Size/Possession Limits/Season in the Recreational Striped Bass Fisheries -- Except as provided in Parts 12.3 and 12.5, no person shall possess in Rhode Island any striped bass which measures less than twenty-eight inches (28") in total length, whether caught within the jurisdiction of this State, or otherwise. Except as provided in Parts 12.3 and 12.5 no person shall possess, per calendar day, more than two (2) striped bass, whether caught within the juris-diction of Rhode Island or otherwise. There is no closed season for striped bass. Compliance with the possession limit aboard vessels will be determined by dividing the number of fish onboard a vessel by the number of recreational fishermen onboard
not saying its wrong or right - but I think if it was in court - Cowhunter would be right.
