The BFT quota is Only for Commercial Fishing. Sport fishing doesn't close. They catch their quota and can't catch anymore because they can't sell at market.

Sport fishermen catch a very small fraction of BFT. But they have cut out limit down from 4 to 2 now.

SAN DIEGO – Commercial fishing of Pacific bluefin tuna has ended for 2017, California Department of Fish and Wildlife announced Tuesday.

The California Department of Fish and Wildlife issued a notice to commercial fisheries:

“The Department has determined that the 2017 commercial fishery catch limit for Pacific Bluefin Tuna has been met. The Department requests that all commercial vessels immediately stop targeting and landing Bluefin Tuna. The National Marine Fisheries Service is in the process of publishing regulations to officially close the commercial Bluefin Tuna fishery.”

Commercial guys are literally the only ones that affect fish populations, but hey (money talks). States gotta get those tax dollars

I make the Spikes for my buddy who wraps plier/cutters. Other buddy stabbed it just for the picture. Totally missing the brain shot. I'm still looking for my Cow BFT. This one taped out at 150#. Your 50 is more than enough. But get a XH or XXH Rod. The end is the hardest and the XH or XXH will lift it better.
