Did you know?

Lets picture two completely reasonable hypotheticals.

I vacuum seal my fish in small single serving sized packages. Lets say I catch a WSB during the period when the bag limit is one. I have to consume my entire fish before I can go catch another one? Lets say I want to keep some stored for the slow season. I can't?

Lets say one small, single serving package slips behind the shelf in my freezer. "Technically" I am in violation of the law if I catch another one?

Now, how would they ever be able to determine if all the meat in my freezer is from two 20# WSB or from one 60# wsb.

I will not even bat an eye at this sort of law. Lobsters, sure I'll "play along"

The only "loophole" in the regs is that you may give fish away to others so that you can have more than one limit in your freezer.



Q. Can I give fish away to friends and family and do they need to have a fishing license for me to give it to them?
A. Yes, you can give fish away. The person you give fish to does not need to have a fishing license. A fishing license is only needed to take fish. You can still only take one daily limit, but you can give that limit away so that you can go fishing the next day and not be in possession of more than one daily bag and possession limit. So, if you have two people in your boat, car, camp or living in your home, you can possess two limits of fish in your boat, car, camp or home.

Maybe it's a through book at you law for acting like an a-hole.
