Well put Ridge.......

If its against the law to take f'n Seabass........consider me Al Capone.

In my mind, and several others, I'm no more a criminal than they (NOAA) are.

Here's how I plan on getting around this......

If you go to the SAFMC website and click the "regulations by species" on the left, a printable document comes up. The same one they mail out annually. Inside you will notice that Seabass is currently 15/per and Red Snapper is 2/per with gear restrictions in place.

Now when I show this DNR/FWC after being accused of harvesting a closed specie, not over the limit mind you, I will show him the document I printed off stating the aforementioned. I will tell him that I was told to go online to check the current regs and this is what I found. When he tells me these aren't the regs anymore is when I drop the haymaker.......Well sir, there may have been more accurate info on there but this was THE BEST DATA AVAILABLE

see for yourself....... http://www.safmc.net/FishIDandRegs/R...8/Default.aspx
