In addition to ownership of that idea which concerned me it was also the part about keeping the first two fish caught which:

1. Did not have any sizes tied to it, and
2. Ignored the issue of unclipped fish

Beyond those observations I tend to lean toward lowering the minimum size limit for retention of winter blackmouth because:

1. There is the perception that pinnipeds are targeting those fish reducing the numbers reaching the current minimum of 22 inches.

2. They are hatchery fish intended for harvest regardless of size.
