I've helped macojoe fill a cooler or two of them flatties. Trust me, he doesn't need to keep shorts. He's got a comm license and does well enough most times on regulation sized fish that he doesn't need to risk loosing his license over.
Bad form man.

If thats a 120Q cooler, those arent shorts.. I'm guessing the one on top is ~8lbs the rest are 2-4lbs...

Duke; was it you that chartered for a while? If so, if a charter wanted his LEGAL limit of bass or other fish, he couldnt take them????

I kill ~10 bass a year and eat them, rarely a limit of 2 but usually 1 every couple of weeks during the season and generally over 36".. I also keep a few limits (8fish) of Fluke , along with some sea bass and blackfish and tuna..
why? I eat fish 2x a week, and if frozen propery it is a nice thing to have all winter. The only fish I buy is salmon.... I can't afford to buy fish all winter... outside my food budget.... maybe I should be a real estate developer....

Then again why the F am I justifying my self to you???

You are right though, we all have a personal choice to make, I chose to eat fish I catch... and it is what the law allows....

Want to change the rules? get involved with ASMFC or RIMFC , go to the meetings, know the numbers and make a good, valid argument and maybe things would change as you see fit; some of us are activly involved in the fisheries side of things as best we can be and based on the science available....

NIB; you are probably right, but since Mikey didnt put up pics saying he killed every fish he caught, and the fact that he gave the reason WHY he kept 3, Duke jumped on it where it wasn't needed/justified...

I know, I'm strangely torn between the biological pull to stand up for my little brother and the fact that I usually want to put my fish back, unless they're fluke, cod, haddock, wolf or the occasional striper.
I just like stirrin the pot sometimes!
Later,
Rick

Nice fish for this early Mikey! Dont worry about folks trying to bring out negative aspects. They're sad strange little people, and the devil has a special lil place in hell reserved for jealous people like them.

Duke, Jealously is a female trait by the way.

Mikey,
Maybe you could send Duke a fish or two for his enjoyment. Is my spelling correct?

[Slipknot]

WHAT"S WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?




Duke, if you wanted to try and enlighten some fishermen about conservation, you picked the wrong thread to hijack.

What makes you think he doesn't let any go?

I guess maybe it's time this trainwreck moves along.
