The population is easily 1/2 of what it was in 2005 and I'm positive this is due to the oil spill and corexit.
A reduced creel limit of trout to 5 per person with strict minimum and maximum size limits will occur within the next 48 months. The trout & menhaden aren't the only fish to have taken a hit either--the flounder fishery is in real trouble.

Do you have a source or link to back what your saying about the oil amount picked up because I call 100% bull **** 700-900lbs everyday
And how do you know the fish population is half of what it was from 2005 when a lot of guides are posting record years from these areas
