Size restrictions has worked on other species. I think the important thing is to make a comment, however you feel, its our fishery and we have opportunity to voice, I don't know how many other states get that opportunity.

Great discussion!

What about the increased population of the small fish,I know I caught over 60 fish total last month fishing bigsandy and only had 7 keepers.I have heard reports of people getting 1 keeper out of 20 caught,next few years will probably be good

LAGER Fish have moved out of the shallows and are probably gonna spawn in the 5-8 ft range. This is the depth I found them and I got some dandies. I will post a pictur of a male later. The fish were not in the areas I expected to find them. Go scout them out. Water here was around 70* and the females still full of eggs. The fish are on the move. I know where theys ain't.

The above is my guess of course.
