Can't really go by a study in Florida and compare it to Louisiana (apples and oranges). The study in Louisiana even negated that fecundity rose with age (it actually went down by 14% that is pretty substantial) If you went out in Florida and caught those fish that the Texas fisherman caught, then yes you would probably be doing some damage to the breeding stock. Isn't Floridas limit like 5 specks? It is ridiculously low. Louisiana is leaps and bounds a better trout fishery than Florida. Not even comparable.
