As far as fish sizes I could see alot jump, but the cost of the commercial safty gear needed could limit some of those numbers.

Same goes for charters since they're basically guided rec trips.

So that we all know, exactly what is your plan when you bring 73+ in fish boatside? I'm curious and will be looking into your answer for reasoning in making your statement. Because I sure as hell have a couple reasons........

Do you agree thre is no possible reason a Charter Boat neds to keep a 73" fish either. Charter boats are not commercial boats.

Charter boats are commercial if they keep a 73 inch bluefin! Let me explain further, if the first fish they catch is under 59 inches and they keep it they are recreational and cannot keep any more tuna. If the first fish they catch is 73 inches or better they are commercial and cannot keep any tuna smaller than 73 inches on that trip. If they catch a 73 or better fish it must be sold to a licensed dealer.
