4/0 and up rule
I have a question, maybe it's dumb but I'm curious.
Not that I see the need or would I ever bring one, but why aren't 4/0 and up not allowed on the pier? Is it because the obvious, over kill? Or something to do with shark fishing? I was just curious if there was some specific obvious reason. Reading the post about the 14ft rod just made me curious as to the 4/0 rule.

[size=12pt]I suspect that the 4/0 Reel Rule is related to the No Shark Fishing Rule. [/size] :

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
