Take 1, 20 to 30# fish times 6 guys, times 2 trips, times the number of boats and you get the picture of the slaughter that is taking place.
That crowd can go out of business far as I am concerned. Moratorium, followed by a coastwide slot would end that nonsense.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

There wasn't a coast wide slot following the last moratorium. The regulations did bring the population to unprecedented levels.

If there were a slot, neither those boats nor the recs would have been out there decimating schools of big fish the way they been for 20 years. We probably would be talking about plugs vs eels and not a potential moratorium.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

What on earth leads you to the conclusion that a lot less people will fish if there is a slot limit?

What in the post you quoted from me says that a lot less people will fish if there is a slot limit?

Also, what on Earth were you talking about when you replied to a post about a moratorium and a coast wide slot and said it didn't work last time?

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.
