Great idea, but i have a question.
Why would the 50 cm and above limit protect spawners, considering that the vast majority of the fish found in the study were above 40 cm, Would this not induce a greater impact on the spawning population? Would it not be better to do something like the Bow, where it is 1 below a certain size (such as 1 below 40 cm). Or make it all C&R for a few years and see what happens (nonviable, i know).
Rather catch a couple 50cm fish then a ton of 30cm fresh stockies..
