Would anyone want to guess the yield on an 18" fish filleted? My guess, 1lb 4oz. I filleted thousands of them, never weighed one, but assume I'm close.
5X 1 lb 4 oz = 6lbs. 4 oz + or- depending on the true yield at approx $12.00 lb. retail market value = nearly $70 worth of fillets, FRESH!!! Sounds good to me. Now, get a bag of 50 hardshell clams, 2 bags of Tater tots, some chips and dip on sale, an 18 pack Miller light for $13.99 and you could throw the party of your life!

Sounds good to me.
Many here would go to Great Adventure, spend $4,5 per ride, a movie for $12, go to a bar and leave a big tip, we will be fine with the new regs.
I like the idea that the people down south who fish the bays/rivers get a better shot at a few keepers, the extended season helps everyone, and the customers that fish party boats get a better chance at keepers.
