    Shit. Pretty soon we will be using barbless hooks. Guess I can release some of the filets in my freezer. How about they outlaw cut bait and live baits. Use plastics like me. Then you really know how to catch em

    Honestly I would like them to lower limit on flounder too and up the size limit to 17". 5 flounder would be more than enough per day.

    I enjoy flounder fishing and there isn't much meat on a 15in fish. I could see going to 16\17in.

    Be careful and don't hurt anything tapping yourself on the back.

    The GA changed it to 3 fish due to Yankee upstate pressure despite DNR recommendations to do so back in 2007.
    Smooth move huh....

    I don't even fish for the damned things but I almost always catch my limit of them fishing for flounder or sheepshead. They eat mighty good. That sucks they are dropping it to 2. It makes no sense that you can keep 5 flounder but only 2 redfish...that is ass backwards.

    It's was really political commentary about how the influx of Ohioans have changed our vernacular.

    I've learned recently that "Flatty" is a hot term for flounder.

    Redfish/Spottails/Channel Bass are the catfish of salt water. Gentlemen fish for trouts and if we want to get our hands a little dirty sheeps. When guides get along great with politicians and start trading off comped trips for a chance to bend their ear this is what you get. There's just as many reds now as ever, they just aren't in the traditional spots due to enormous fishing pressure in said spots. They are becoming more like largemouths. I've caught the fool out of them in the last three years at traditional snaggy sheep spots. Why should they hang out on flats for guides and flipper to pick at them every day.

    Yes Sir, it is. The term "red", "reds", and "redfish", is yankee speak for spottail.
