Those of you that belong to "Stripers For Ever" would hate this rule because you are a selffish group and want to catch many under size fish creating at least 12% mortality rate.
So I don't really have a problem with your idea except what happens on a boat with 4 guys? Three keep fishing and one just sits. Suppose he's now fishing for Bluefish. How do you enforce the law? Can't personally see how you could make it work.

1 fish 36" been saying that for 10 years now.

No boat, back in the suds.
