A couple a year suffice.
My point is to have 3 designations for Bass pie.
1- True commercial.
2- Charter/ headboat fishing.
3- Recreational.
1 and 2 are always going after max take, for money.
3 is not.

The Captain will only kill as many fish as the charter wants to kill (up to the limit). Some folks don't kill any, some only kill one or two, some kill the max. Its just like guys fishing from private boats or from shore.
