CHANGES IN 2009

the new dates and size limits are out for 2009 summer flounder fishing. it is not the best of dates, however none of the options were what any of us really wanted. one of the main topics that was echoed many times over was the high mortality rate. i hope this gets more attention in the future. option number 5 was the decision of the council for the 2009 season may 23 - september 4 with a 6 fish bag limit at 18". this does give us the memorial day weekend, but not labor day. it also gets us started a bit earlier than the other options. as for drum fish their may be a increase in size and a drop is bag limit, but that is not worked out yet. as more is learned we will let you know.
