Dat's why I like bull reds and gafftops. Everyone on board can count to one. If we lose count, it's easy enough to crack the igloo and double check the count. And gafftops have no limit. We just keep tossing 'em in until there's no more room or until I'm worried about how much work it would be to clean them of if all the fillets will fit in the cabin freezer.
Back in the Colorado days, even counting to 4 (the trout limit there) got complicated, and we often had to throw all the trout in a bucket and double check the count back into the cooler. One time, with four in the boat, I only ended up with 15 fish to clean at the sink. You shoulda smelled the boat two days later when we found #16.
And I'm a math geek.
