I have been Commercial fishing for almost a decade now. The triggerfish stocks are healthy and I can hit the trip limit on every trip I choose to do. Thank you to the council and for Noaa for realizing the populations have recovered and we can sustainably harvest much larger bag limits without hurting the biomass. I hope the council realizes the same for red grouoer, gag grouper and red snapper. All 3 species are thriving in southwest Florida. And the data being used to say those species are overfished is flawed, outdated and inaccurate. Thank you for your efforts.

I think the 36 would be great because you wouldn’t have to throw back smaller ones in turn for the bigger ones and can settle for a variety of sizes while still being able to manintain a few big species without having discards

Out of all the bottom fish, the gray triggerfish is the most complicated one to catch a legal size. This is coming someone with several years bottom fishing that knows what fish is scarce. Unlike legal Red snapper, legal triggerfish are hard to come by. There is good reason why commercial fisherman didn’t make quota.
