Can someone explain what is up with the nets north of Kelly’s? I always thought those were generally illegal in US waters.
Can’t remember ever seeing them like this around the islands… and so poorly marked.

Commercial fishing is still legal in Ohio but for the few legacy licenses that have been held for years. No new license issued for decades. No take of walleye is legal. They typically fish for perch until quotas are filled. Will also keep other fish like white bass.

Btw l like the name as my son and I enjoy the sprints too.

Tiger- great report. I also like releasing big fish as they don't eat as well. Tough if it's a newcomer who caught it.
