Don't like the closure idea. But I'm in favor of reduced bag limits, and I think a slot limit would be better than just increasing the size limit.

I'm all for it.
When was the last time you or any other 'yakker you know took home 10 calicos? I'd guess never. Ever check some of the 'other' fishing forums? Dudes talk about taking limits of calicos all the time. That's a lot of calicos if you've got five guys on a boat. I've got no problems with an attempt to reduce bag limits. Management vs closure. What a concept. Willy |

Is slot like you can take fish between 15-22? That would make the most sense.
I wasn't involved for the MLPA stuff but I'm wondering if rolling closures were ever brought up. Like one area would be closed for a few years then reopen and another area would be closed. |

Yeah, slot limits set a size range. This gives smaller fish the chance to breed and leaves bigger breeding stock alone as well.
I do think that sport boats contribute to the problem. Reducing bag limits would definitely take off pressure. Related to that, in 5 years as a deckhand I never once saw a sea lion eat a bass. I'm sure it happens, but I've thrown a lot of bass at sea lions and never had a taker. But, they sure do reek havoc on a lot of other species. They need to be controlled, they are way over populated.

X 3. I don't know why it took them this long to figure out that MANAGEMENT works.

By Closures do you mean full closure or the closure of a season for a couple of weeks? I like the idea of lowering the daily limit for bass and all fish, changing the size regulations, and having seasonal closures during the spawning times. Closing off areas to fish needs to go away.
