A lot of the uppers in DNR's don't even trap, hunt or fish. These things happen when libtards infiltrate our departments of wildlife. It's nuts!
I wonder if tap dancers walk into a room, look at the floor, and think, I'd tap that. I wonder about things.....

there is a pond in were my grandmother lives , residents and their families may fish and if is all catch and release , blue gill , sun fish and a few bass.
if you haven't caught a fish in 30 seconds you better check if you still have bait.
but you better be using a small hook or you won't be reeling any in
some fish need to come out or they all end up ting in my experience
a slot might work
America only has one issue, we have a Responsibility crisis and everything else stems from it.

We had quality deer management areas they came up with here so they blocked off the roads, now you need to drag a deer a mile to your vehicle or have a quality heart attack either one. I think it saves money for them not needing to keep the road up was the real reason.
Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

And they wonder why participation is falling........... My take on falling fisherman numbers ... A big part of it is 7,496 page Rule book and growing The hunting and fishing Law , Synopsis- rule book is so Thick and detailed that its Almost not readable When I was 10 I used to read the regs book each year ...Now a 15 year old couldn't figure it out

Here in Ohio, you probably can't hook and line catch enough bluegill to adversely effect the bluegill population in a healthy body of water. The more bluegill you pull out the more babies successfully reach decent size. Older bluegill size goes up in bodies of water that are heavily fished too.
Do bluegill have recruitment issues in cold Northern waters?
Keith Unless you fish in a area with Amish, they will reduce to nill.

I'm right in the middle of this area and can say for now that I think it's a great idea. This area has always been known as a magnet for tourism with all the lakes in the area. And with that comes the attitude that I spent good money on a license, by golly I'm going to get money's worth. The result is that people keep whatever they catch up to and exceeding their limit, may fish way too small to keep. Release?? No way! Just last weekend I was on an area lake that was so full of fish houses, it would rival any small town. Not the first time and it won't be the last by a long shot. The fish are hit hard to the point that it's become difficult to catch a keeper, yet next weekend it'll swamped again. If the limits are reduced (10 right now) maybe the big ones will return again. I have no problem catching 4-5 nice ones for a meal vs 10-15 for the same amount of meat. Conservation

There's a thing going on in my neck of the woods and I seem to be going nowhere with our DOW. Shreve Lake is our local fishery and they shut it down about 4 years ago. I won't go into the details of my conversations with them but included was a size limit or something. I do not like to encourage any Gov agency because they are knotheads and always screw things up. But the ding dang Amish take everything and poof, the fishing sucks.
