| You are required to keep the racks on board with you for Fluke unless the fillet itself meets the minimum length requirements. You also need to keep the head and tail intact on striped bass until you get back to shore.

I clean sharks right on the dock or on the boat. They are the easiest and most enjoyable fish to clean, as there are no "racks" to contend with. Cut off the tail & fins, then cut into steaks perpendicular to the body, right thru the spine. No waste. When you get to the head, you can get some nice hunks of meat out of the top of the head to a point as well. Chuck the remains over, there's less waste than an average Tog trip

lobsters with a v notch are proven breeders and must be returned to the drink at least in MASS. check state regs online I know it hurts because they are usually big. | ||

Same goes for RI, no v-notch lobsters. Lobstering has been slow past few pulls, probably moving to cooler waters.  | ||
