Redfish spinoff

so until that time will/would you self regulate and only keep your limit when fishing with a guide?

I generally stop boxing reds at three so it’s all the same for me. I wouldn’t keep guide fish unless there was someone I was dropping it off to that day. I’m all for guides not boxing fish.

I will comply with the CURRENT regulations, size limits, and bag limits.

Side note: I dont fish with a guide but would keep his limit too if I did.

Anecdotally, what I've found is that yes, redfish numbers are pretty good. I caught ten just last weekend.

Not just 10 but 10 that were all less than 22 inches. That's a GREAT sign.

But that's just anecdotal. I have not seen or read any data from any official accredited source that would indicate redfish are better off than at any point since gill nets. Certainly no data to indicate redfish limits should be doubled .

It’s such a nice change to have someone level headed posting here about something they are clearly an expert in. I didn’t know we were fortunate enough to have the waterways owner posting here.

then you dont know how to fish, you just know how to hold a fishing pole
Ok gramps

how about you and the rest of the idiots frickoff and stop telling others what to do.
I asked a question, never did i tell anyone what to do

redfish numbers are higher then they have ever been since the gill net ban, they only want to reduce limits to help the commercial fishermen make more money.
How many commercial fishermen are targeting red fish in La?.

based on the science of sample tests, redfish limits should be doubled, not reduced

---

Please cite and produce these sample tests, would also like the location of the fish hatcheries in La.

You're one grump MF'er, you probably need to get LAID.

The change will not happen before July or August

Per advocate- “That could come as early as June 20, or possibly July 20, at which time the new size and creel limits and other restrictions would take effect.“

I thought commercial red fishing in State or Federal waters was forbidden?

Regardless, slot and rat reds have been far more scarce in the Biloxi Marsh and out of Delacroix the last 2-3 years than years past. Yes, I can usually find some but not as easily when they were far more plentiful. Now, they're mostly bycatch as we chase specks.

It took me awhile to realize you are just trolling. It’s actually impressive how you keep finding ways to outdo yourself

He’s really not. I’ve seen this hand on many a fishing forum and he says shite like this all the time He is something else
