I’m all for change, IF there’s science to back it up. How often do 2 people go out and catch 50 specks? Not often and I fish more than most on here. If the current limit is already nearly unattainable for most people in most circumstances, than I see no reason to change it.

Dropping the limit from 25 to say, 15, wouldn't affect the net amount of fish I catch in a year, probably, as I seldom limit out.

To me, the size limit is a key factor. If increased from 12 to say 14", I would think this might result in a lot more fish in the fishery. Is that a good or bad thing? Is there enough food to support the increase? Will it result in more or less 14" and up fish? And if it does, do we need to drop the daily catch limit?

Not that it's up to me, but seems like close evaluation of the results of changes would be the key to it being successful. AND the willingness to make adjustments quickly if it isn't.
