As I don't get to get out as much as I would like, I would like the 5 fish 17.5 inch regulation. As has been said, Mid September on it always seems as if a storm kills the Fluke fishing. 17.5 would also make a lot more kids smile as their fish gets thrown in the keeper box.
Another factor is fuel prices. It is alot easier to justify my fishing expenses when I come home with a bag full(hopefully) of fillets. I don't need 8. 20 fillets on a limit trip would be great.
