I'm not sure how you are connecting the dots as far as the effect of the slot and what you mean by Bay fish, etc. Chesapeake, Delaware, Raritan? You can catch them all year long, but the slot wrecked that?
1 fish, whether 22-28 or 36 is better than what we have. I am not sure there is any evidence that you are correct that 1@22-28" would wipe out the population, but the 2@28 is working (clearly, in your experience). In any case, I am glad I don't rely on them for financial purposes. It is too bad that the regulations are driven by those who profit by killing the biggest fish.

Yes Slot Crushed raritan an DE bay... Why they go back to 2 @ 28"??? The Headboat captains pushed for it to begin with cause they wanted a piece of the early and late season action, easy to clam, worm, and jig rats...
