Brad, that's why I defended your position. I saw several posts about you being a killing machine
with 7 rods, blah, blah, blah. My position is, if you eat it, great. I'm willing to bet the casual
fisherman kills more with ignorance than most experienced anglers do with their legal take.
Especially when you consider the long term effects of undersized or mating fish.

I don't keep anything but yellowtail and lobster. I guess that's because I'm still looking for
a legal halibut and WSB. This season, I've kept 11 lobster, with 4 being over 4lbs and
1 nearly 5lbs. I guess that adds up to more than 35lbs of lobster this season.
In 2006, I took just over 25lbs of YT with 3 firecrackers the first 2 weeks I started kayak fishing, in Sept.
Nothing else...oh except maybe about 50lbs of mackeral.
