charter Capt. selling fish

It depends! Many charter boats also have commercial licenses, and will sometime invite "regulars" to pinhook for them, i.e. be part of the crew on a commercial trip.

That would not be a charter then.

Not sure if I did the link correctly. Brown Trout wrote:

Is it legal for a Capt. to sell fish caught by his charter?
If not, one of the advertisers here just admitted to doing just that.

Try again! As I just posted in the reports section.........

selling fish from a charter? Not quite legal Cap. Glad the kids had a good time, but .........
Who said he was selling the fish?? The POINT of Mark's post was that IF you were to go and BUY as much fish on the East end (at nearly $20 per pound) that these guys caught on their trip then the 40 pounds of fish they caught on this charter would have cost them at least $800, and therefore the cost of the charter was a good value considering how much they got to take home for their table!!!! Comprende?

If you are going to post negative comments, at least make sure your reading comprehension is high enough to pass one of those state tests our kids take!!! Sheesh!!

He never said he was selling any fish, just how much it would be worth if they had to buy it.
EXACTLY!!!

i dont get it, i feel like people just look for anyway to accuse someone of wrong doing. its like people have no life but to take other peoples statements twist their words around and make seem like there doing something wrong, but in all reality your the one who has no life but to accuse a hard working boat captain of wrong doing. sometimes things are left better unsaid.

So nice to see that some guys are so happy that some kids had a great day fishing with their dads (note the sarcaism)

I counted the fish in the pic, not a single law was broken. It's the same old crap with some of you, and since we're dealing with the grand exhalted striper here, the nonsense is coming, as always, from those who practice a certain form of saltwater angling ( hint: they do this form of fishing cause they get seasick ) I mean, the comments in some of those posts are so assinine ( "bloodbath") you'd think a card-carrying PETA member registered on Noreast just to stir up nonsense .

Guess it's too much to ask for people to just keep their posts to themselves if they have nothing constructive to say.That's fine, that is what I am here for !!! It's actually pretty disgusting that a few dads can't take their kids fishing and not violate any fishery regs but they still have to take crap from the closet enviros and for-hire fleet haters ( why don't you just admit it, Bucktail). Hope they don't decide to show the kids the report Mark posted on Noreast.com

Ironically, this thread was started by someone who claims he hates internet fishing reports, yet he seems to still be reading them .
