A restaurant serves a portion , not a 1/4 fish in many places . Otherwise patrons getting a white side fillet would complain about those others getting a brown side etc . The THEORY that commercial guys target 16-18” fish is one started by recreational fisherman . . When better fish are around their paychecks are substantially larger . When the market is overrun with fish when the 7 day boats are boating 30-35k a week of fish , small guys don’t even want to fish because it brings the price down to low to make a profit on the smaller state landings . IMO if you follow NC landings for most of the year they are enormous, in a state that only has a 2 week recreational season . Those boats are way overfishing all the states north of them to fill those quotas . It’s not the local commercial boats fishing here with much more conservative bag limits . |
Re: 2024 and 2025 Fluke Options Poll
I agree with the most popular choice: 145 days, 3 fish @ 18. The party boats need the long season. We ae down to 3 in AHMH, unless a new boat moves into 1 of the 5 vacant slips. Any young captains out there that want to get into this business?

Our country and culture is totally corrupt....needs to be completely overhauled # 2 was in the lead and the numbers have all been subtracted from #2 don't believe anything you see anymore |

Sushi restaurants want the bigger fish and I imagine a lot if not the majority are shipped to Japan.

My theory, as you refer to it about restaurant size 16" to 18" being the primary size fish targeted, isn't from recreational anglers, it's from one of the top commercial guys in the industry. |

The people saying larger fish while having more eggs are less fertile than younger age classes are the same guys harvesting those older breeders to rationalize their catch. The juvenile female fluke when they first attain sexual maturity are said to produce approximately 400,000 eggs a year. Large breeders can produce up to 4 million a year. There might be some truth to the fact that larger breeders on a relative basis are less fertile but there's no science that suggests that differential in fertility comes close to mitigating the incremental eggs a larger breeder is capable of producing. |
