Commercial Fluke

To give the reasoning on why there is a disparity (and this is the untechnical version) is that when they set the size limits back in the day (this is the Ny version as I understand it thru a 70 yr commercial fluker.... aka my dad) the State set the commercial size at 14 inches. It then became a Law. Whereas the recreational size is a XXX(not showing much intelligence), which can be adjusted each year. A LAW, needs the state legislators to vote on it (I think 2/3rds vote), and overturn it.... I have no clue if the 14 inch law has been brought before the state in the last 10 yrs.....

Anyone with some law background verify this gibberish I'm spouting????

Fordam grad school is not looking to strong after my reply if they passed me.

Also flame away if this is B.S as I'll have some ammo to rag on my dad.
