I am one of the newbies that andy took out at Sekiu last weekend. All gear on his boat had the barbs pinched the night before. And anything that we brought along he checked before it went in the water. All fish that were questionable keepers were not even netted until a positive ID was made. And he knows his fish! The reg. book was sitting on the dash of the boat, but I think he could probably quote it anyway.
I wouldn't bother picking over any of his photos for violations. you won't find any.
