In RI,there are a lot less guys(limited entry,actually,no entry)and there's a 3 fish limit,every fishing day.That's a lot less fish,so a higher price.

..wrong.....5 fish per boat per day, 5 days a week..no fishing Fri, Sat....till spring quota is filled (aprox....90,000 lbs) then short season in Sept....trap fishermen allowed approx 100,000 lbs |

Really?It was 3 when I used to go with some comms.Surprising that they would raise it.Either way,comparing 5 to 30,and comparing the number of guys doing it,it's easy to see the price difference. |

I would think about 23 fish averaging 42#...  |

23 fish, 42lb average.
Is this one of the loads that shows up to the buyer with holes shot though it from the spears ? |

R/R
it could be .but its legal in RI / if you have a commercial finfish license in RI ........ it can be from boat or shore >>> R&R / nets / dragging .diving .
I went to a [open] meeting on Monday night ... about a bunch of proposals, requests, etc .. concerning or effecting RI waters .
One of the discussions was on wordage to make it [clearer] on what & when >. where & who .on commercial fishing ;;;it centered around the R &R & boats ..
Someone rasised the question of guys that fished from shore ;;; Duh // then asked a two part question on diving for shellfish & also fin fish ...........another Duh . they had not even thought about either ..... so those are two more issues that they will address & have in writing . so Enforcement won,t have to deal with more [gray] area,s .
Its legal & it will stay legal . we tried to control it some .........25 years ago in the shellfish industry ........ & lost because of the backing that they have from rec divers ............ shellfishing has paid the price dearly for that loss ;;

When the RI season was open we saw an amazing amount of RI boats fishing race point.
Haven't seen many since the RI season closed.
