Red Fish Question
I know the limit on Red Fish is 3 a day and the slot is 16” to 26” any you are allowed 1
fish over the slot. My question is do you have to have a fish in the slot before you can keep
a fish over 26”?

No. You can catch a 30" red and keep him, but then the rest of your catch has to be in the slot. It happens quite often this way, or maybe the one over is all you'll get.
happy fishing!

I suggest you to catch a 30" rod and keep him with the rest of your catch has to be in slot.

I'm with you on this Greg, for several reasons. I sure miss the good old days of being able to catch a mess of 12-15" rat reds. Those little ones were some good groceries.

Those big reds, especially the one from the bay, have a tendency to look a lot like a can of noodle soup when they are opened up

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!
