As you all know to keep two bass one must be 43" or better. So what!!! One 28-40" is a big bag of fillet. There will be limits this year even with this new restriction. I would say in this day and age that most fisherman are out there for the sport rather than trying to fill the freezer.

Whether we like it or not the new bag limit is here and don't let it ruin the sport we all love. New Jersey will still have trophy tags available. This comes from the commercial quota. I will post more about this when I get more info in the upcoming weeks. Spring will be here soon so make your plans and book your favorite charter boat and frequent your pb also.

I'm confused...From everything I read they only changed the size limit. No the Bag. Although, I would agree that the new size range will limits 95% of all trips to one fish per man.

My answer is no. No change to how often I fish for bass.
