You need an HMS permit, and if I read right which i probably haven't if your vessel is registered as commercial/charter fishing , recreationally of course... you can keep 1under and 1over other private vessels are only allowed one over 27 unless you get an over 73 trophy, one per year ...
Technically you even need one if you plan on trolling Albies and bonito... FYI , it's late I'm sure I'm wrong somewhere but I got heatstroke... That's my excuse!!
