re: Cleaning fish at camp - legal question

quote:

---

"All saltwater finfish caught in possession of
a recreational angler must have the head
and caudal fin intact until set on shore.
Garfish may have the head and caudal fin
removed prior to the fish being on shore as
long as a sufficient patch of skin that clearly
identifies the fish remains on the fish.

Exception: Tuna, swordfish and shark
possessed by a recreational angler must not
be skinned or scaled until set or put on
shore. Tuna that meet minimum size
requirements may have the head removed if
the carcass length is in excess of the minimum
total length. See Lengths on page 14.

Fillets may not be possessed on the water,
except for the purpose of consumption at
sea aboard the harvesting vessel. An individual
must not have more than 2 pounds
of finfish parts per person in state waters,
or more than 1.5 pounds of finfish parts per
person in federal waters, on board the vessel,
provided that the vessel is equipped to
cook finfish and that the finfish does not
exceed applicable bag limits. These provisions
do not apply to bait species.

Saltwater finfish caught or transported by a
recreational fisherman are presumed to
have been caught in Louisiana waters, for
license requirements.

All regulations regarding these species
apply whether caught in freshwater or saltwater
areas."

This only applies to saltwater fish, not freshwater.

Also you want your work around the law? put a BBQ pit in your boat, and you are then allowed 2lbs person of fish fillets while on the water.
