The guy has a point, especially for those that can only get out a very few times a year or have limited resources. I don't agree with what he's doing, but why do the com's get a poundage quote and allowed to kill more fish to reach it. While rec's get a poundage quote and are made to reach it by killing less fish? I just want my fair share of the poundage and there's no reason I shouldn't be able to keep the same size fish as the com's.
The com's aren't the bad guys, it's the lawmakers that we have a grievance with.

Man, I forgot that everyone on here obeys every rule or law 100% of the time...what was I thinking.
yeah because we respect the laws, we are conservationists that like to keep the hunting and fishing heritage alive for years and years to come. not an ass clown like your self that ruins it [wallmad]

Some people don't get it.
yeah i think your right.


i started working on the fluke boats as a kid in 1986. im not to sure of the year but thats close. it was a year befor they started the minimum size which was 12 inches. lots of short fish and the minimum size started to go up 13 14, 14 1/2.

we have lots of nice fluke around now, better fish. 18" is a nice fish so is a 17 and 16 inch. but these regs are in place for a reason. were heading out now for soem barnegat bay fluking. good luck to everyone on this topic.

What is the real reason? Do you really think the regs are in line and things are being managed properly?

So the nice fat 14,15,16 up to 17.5 [tasty]that are being thrown back that have had the hooks torn out makes sence? Bleeding to death or mouths torn out from animals that are pissed they have to throw back?
Then glad your not managing either[rofl][rofl][rofl]

he could have nailed us for the one that was less than a quarter short.
I woulda taken the rap for that one ;) Just goes to show you that the CO's aren't trying to bust people's balls, they're really trying to make sure people follow the laws. From now on though, 18-1/4" on that golden ruler of yours [hihi]

Exactly good post, ;)

But when cry-babies keep short fish because they think the state owes it to them, because they spend alot of money on there fishing trip it makes all of us loyal sportsman look bad when THEM TYPE OF PEOPLE get caught. [mad]

I will put it this way...It costs us 100+ to fill the boat with gas..20+ for bait...20+ for lunch and drinks..and I live in warren county so its an hour an a half ride to the highlands. Now I'm not greedy but when i go fluking I go home with a meal...every time...regardless of 18 inches. If the trawlers are keeping at 14 im damn sure going to get a meal out of my 200 dollar day.
Gee based on that, having hunted all three past deer seasons and never got a deer, so I think I'm gonna' go shoot one now, next week in fact, on some private posted land at night. After all I spent all that time and money...I'm entitled to at least one a year right?[wallmad][wallmad]

Hell, next year I might not even buy a license. I mean, the F & G is a mess and don't know what there doing plus a deer hit my wife's car a few years back; so doggonit', I spent $400 to fix the car so the State owes me...right?[wallmad][wallmad]

Some of us do, especially when it comes to poaching and yeah, I AM the goody two shoes who will call F & G on anyone who is taking game illegally. Someone's got to keep the jackasses in check.[smoke]
