Nice report.
Thanks
I know your crew woulda liked more “keepers”. But the way I’m looking at it is that the new regs will (might) allow the current shorts to grow a bit, and reproduce.
This should provide two things.
Larger fish, and more fish.
I’m not a marine biologist.
Just the way I see it.
In any event, because crappies grow quickly, I’m thinking we should see results of this regs change in maybe only 2-3 yrs or even sooner.
Catching fish is the game.
You did this.
Keeping your catch and eating it comes next. Maybe the new regs will help this part of the trip.
Again, thanks for the report.
