Fluke Regs.

[Double Trouble]

Anything new on the 2023 fluke regulations for NY.

 

[pequa1]

as usual it will be last minute again. Guys don't even get a heads up as to when they will be too sick to go to work !

 

[Double Trouble]

I dont have to worry about that anymore!

 

[pequa1]

Me either, not since 2011!

That is last years regs.

A dec gal at a show did say it would stay the same but she was not THE authority. I still think they should go with a slot and who in hell needs to kill four ?

With all due respect; I’m confused( not that unusual) but could you elaborate on your “

and who in hell needs to kill four

 

[pequa1]

I just think to be allowed to keep as many as four will reduce the resource, especially since the vast majority of fish over 18 1/2" are females. who needs four fish for dinner ?

 

[Leprechaun]

How about 2 dinners during the week, if you only fish on weekends? I do like 4 fish as a workable catch limit.

 

[pequa1]

You may feel differently when you retire. Bring a family member, lol. Perhaps all the windmills will make it more difficult for the commercials to decimate the stock as they migrate inshore( ? )

 

[Leprechaun]

Doubtful. Besides, I have no intention of retiring. . . I actually enjoy my job.

 

[Double Trouble]

I am retired and usually go out 3 times a week not always for fluke so when I get lucky to get 4 keepers they go home.My wife daughter son in law and grand kids all love fish so nothing goes to waste.

I personally think 4 isn't enough. I also think the size limit should be 18 inches..

Let's not forget, the coms are fishing a 14 inch limit.

 

[pequa1]

I enjoyed my job but not working at all ? No comparison. Besides i prefer weakfish snd if its another good year for them a one fish limit retirees can handle lol. I still want a slot for fluke, just loke stripers.

7 at 14. And we wonder why things are what they are. Guilty as chsrged

Rumor has it that some fluke have been caught in Southern Maine the past few years. May give it a shot for S&G this August. No regs on the books so if I can get a decent filet off it, it’s mine…

 

[pequa1]

If we live long enough, mahi mahi, red drum, barracuda, and marlin from the beach !

Fish are food.
