The captain is engaged in an act of fishing commerce, we are talking semantics here. I work part time on a charter boat. The goal all the time is to get the maximum we can keep . After all that is what we are getting " paid " to do. If I am rec fishing it's never about the maximum to take home, I hardly ever keep fish. So do most of the people I know that fish a bit. A couple a year suffice.
My point is to have 3 designations for Bass pie.
1- True commercial.
2- Charter/ headboat fishing.
3- Recreational.
1 and 2 are always going after max take, for money.
3 is not.
