Even worse, I my as well get them while I still can, if I don't kill them someone else will.
Many people who support game fish status understand that the only way to get recreational fishermen to agree to cuts is to remove the commercial fishing excuse.

You want 30,get a license. Otherwise it is 1 which is a lot of food and fun to catch.
