And whatever the yield, it is greater for fish you keep than for fish you throw back. I really want to encourage folks to keep more gafftops, not only because they are as good as other catfish, but because gafftops are strong food competitors with redfish and specks, and also eat their share of age 0 specimens of redfish and specks (and mullet and croaker and menhaden).

For every 5 lb gafftop you keep, you leave enough forage to feed 5 lbs of redfish and specks.
So murder every one of em and feed da crabs
