You can only sell fish over 73" if you have the commercial general category or the head boat/charter boat permit. It is illegal to sell any Bluefin under 73" regardless of what permit you have.

Dave from Tuna.com outlines this for his trips. The charter has to make the decision whether to keep the small one, making it recreational or go for the larger size tuna and retain those. He would be a great resource for you Gerry.
