Default Re: Current Bluefin Tuna Regs

OK let's see if I have this correct...

If I own a boat and I have or am a licensed captain, I can get a fore hire permit and can keep an under and an over daily and one trophy fish over 72 once a year.

If I own a boat and am not or dont have a licensed captain I get a recreational permit and can keep one fish up to 72 dialy and one fish over 72 once a year.

Now let's talk about commercial. It's my understanding that these licenses are more expensive, they stay with the boat and the boat needs to have life rafts, survival suits etc.

When Bernie and Greg say a for hire like me can choose if im fishing recreational or commercial based on what I kill, this assumes I have a commercial license too?

Pass the popcorn please
