New tuna regs for recreational for June 1 through August 31, 2010 are 1 fish per boat per day 27" to under 73". So for now, the rec's can keep a fish, but this could change.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Better than a full closure. They way the numbers were presented, we thought that could happen.
Fish are biting well. Superman Riptide hauled 73" over the rail on spin gear. Man he is good...

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.

I'll say this.
It's gonna be pretty tough controlling these size fish boat side to get a measurement without doing damage to the fish.
We got a fish today, once we got it to the surface it looked in the 60 inch class.
After boating it realized it was bigger @ 72

Make up a line attached to a big snap, make the line 73 inches long including a bright red piece of rag on the end. When you get the fish close to the boat clip the line to the fishing line and let it go. It will stream from the hook and tell you whether the fish is too big or not. No need for an actual measurement, you just need to know if its too big.

Nice hint Mike for measuring. I'll need to use it after I boat my 1st 73+.  Now lets hope we ultimately don't have to tie the flag at 59"!

 Given the diversity of the human species, there is no “normal” human genome sequence. We are all mutants.
