I wish there were definitive numbers on the overall population in the pool. I can clearly remember being in high school (late 80's) and my dad and I catching 2 limits (15 per man) on a fairly regular basis. I've noticed this year moving around in the marsh and the trails/canals not scaring up anywhere near the number of fish that we used to. I think a slot is a great idea, and I think some voluntary catch and release would do wonders for the population.
