Using Fluke Belly as Bait
« on: June 05, 2008, 06:18:15 PM »
I know the new Regulations say :

You can belly 1 fluke but it must be of legal size...

Of couse that is per man..

Question is..

When I used up all the bait on my legal fish. can I belly another?

Or you can only posses 1 bellied fluke per man  5hrug

Each fishermen can only belly one Legal Fluke

so if ya got 3 guys on the boat you can belly 3 Fluke but each guy has to claim one of them as his/hers t^

Give a man a fish, and he can eat for a day. But teach a man how to fish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years.

Sun dial is not covered under the fluke regs. You can keep them, However, I would keep the carcass if only to show that your strips were from the sun dial and not a fluke if you were boarded.

wow if the bellied fluke goes overboard can you belly another I say no but it IS your catch

I think the superlongrange video will show you dumping the carcass and it'll be $54 for you

Don't forget, the fine is for HAVING a short fish. There is also a fine for EVERY fish you have that is short. Thus, if you have ONE short fish, you pay a fine for having it plus a fine for the one fish. Therefore doubling the initial fine. If you have more short fish, you will pay the fine for each additional fish.

Joe I think we have to be careful on this one. Let's take this a step further is the regulation still in affect that say's "There will be no filleting of Flat fish." excluding our 1 legal fluke?? Or has that been washed ?

Brown/top side must be intact on the one(s) used for fluke belly baits.  No salt-n-pepper strips >:(
