Perch limit raised to 40

[LEfriend]

Fished out of Lorain on Sunday and the DNR guys told us they raised the perch limit to 40. I was skeptical, but he showed me the web site.

Unfortunately, we couldn't get them to go as well as we had on Friday so ended far short of our limits. But is was a great day to be on the water!

Not sure you got good information. If you look at that link, is says "except...." Click on Lake Erie, and you get this table link below which still shows 30 for the Ohio waters of Lake Erie. Wish it were so, but haven't heard or seen it anyplace else. Don't doubt he told you that, but might want to double check to stay out of trouble.

Yeah it's still 30 on Erie

LEfriend I agree this is misleading looking at the link Bordy provided it doesn’t even give a size limit. Bordy you need to click on the link Lake Erie and its Tributaries

Definitely is still 30. Wouldn't surprise me to hear of ODNR/LE spreading misinformation though. Not bashing them, but I swear as many of them are as clueless on the laws as half of the population.

30 yellow perch per person on lake erie and its tribs. That 40 number says all public waters Except L. Erie and a few other specific spots.
30 per person lake wide limit for L Erie.
