Thanks for the Info Phil!!
I hope your right (and you usually are

)but frankly, I dont know who or what to believe anymore. I havent seen the Viking or Francis fleets cancel multi day cod trips up north yet. The Viking has a couple of trips to Stellwagen so in sure if multi day trips were not allowed, they would have cancelled.
Its unfortunate that the YC decided to call it quits in New England but there are still alot of other boats that will be taking guys fishing in the GOM. Its not all gloom and doom.
There are never any guarantees from one year to the next so I plan on taking advantage of the limits and plan on putting some fillets in the freezer!
