Hey I guess the fact they wear a badge lets them do anything they want. Just like when you meet a cop driving 95 on his way to taco bell......If the truth be known the slot limit should be taken off on Dale . NOT the CREEL limit 2 fish are plenty but It is apparent that the Slot limit hasn't done what they told the fishermen it would when they imposed it. (new world record in 3 years). The population is awesome so go back to 18' size limit.
