    As I see it yes, commercial guys make a living from it but us rec guys also spend a fortune on boats and tackle and gas. A penn 80 or 130 is no cheaper for a rec guy you know. I just feel as though after spending all that money we should be able to keep a fish, even if it is not over 73". Just my 2 cents worth.

    If we don't stand together,we'll fall,separately.These bunnyhuggers are salivating when they see us at each others throats.The guys posting slams against the recs,or against the comms,may as well just join peta,or pew.You're already working for them.

    All of this BS is going to be a losing battle for everyone. The Feds have computers too and this would be another reason to shut down the fishery if everyone cant get along. I have plenty of friends on here that are rec and some that are commercial who the F cares what you are???? When that 30/50/70 bends its the same great feeling as a 130 heaped over.

    lots of giants!
    when a 30 50 or 70 bends over....it is nothing like....not even comparable to a 130 with a giant on it...
    obviously you have never been there when this happens but it is a frequent occurence on my boat....especially in the fall
    because you spend money you should be able to kill shorts
    i spend money and i dont kill the little bastards.....i let them go since they are very dumb and bite anything

    And YOU can't keep them anyways. Stop trashing the rec guys. I have yet to here a rec guy trash a commercial guy. If we were all "doing it for a living" you would be more pissed.

    I'll ask again. Will you release all fish under 73" if they lower your size restriction to 65"?........ I thought not.

    hey D bag its what I DO FOR A LIVING. Dont give me this BS that your the best and a real commercial fisherman. I dont give a crap what you say but why not just use this site for what its worth instead of repeating the same BS over and over about non sellable fish.
