Sounds good but I'm not holding my breath as to if it will help the guys on the water. If you look at the history of the flounder regs, you will see that sustainable stock populations can and will change like the wind. The people "in the know" that make recommendations have a history of being proven wrong later on.... I hope this is not the case this time.....
