One thing is for sure. If you get your seabass, it is wrong to keep fishing, gaff another one, and call in another boat to hand it off to. I saw this repeated several times last week at MDR- guys were already limited out for the boat, then calling in other boats to hand off the stuck seabass. Just take your fish, and rack your rod. I can see if you have two or three guys on the boat fishing until you limit out (technically illegal), but don't keep fishing them and pass them off to other boats. This is still a fragile fishery, as wide open as it has been the last two years. Everyone needs to help out to keep this fishery alive for the future. Besides, one nice seabass can fill your freezer quite nicely. Hopefully I'll have some nice chicken in the freezer Sunday, I need some tuna!!!!
