    My thought is why give fisherman a hard time as long as the group only takes their limit, what's the harm? A lot of trollers don't set their own lines therefore they are being assisted in catching fish, as long as the boat takes the limit, who cares. I suppose to really make everything fair, we should impose possession limits. You know, like no more than say 24 walleye in your freezer, maybe a hundred perch. After all, those who live on the lake can take 42 walleye and 210 perch per week every week and still be legal. Yet some of them will be the same ones to complain about a person who can only come to the lake one trip per year when they catch a "boat limit" for the day. I mean, we all pay the same price for the license, so why should some be allowed to have more fish in their freezer.

    I am of course saying this with my tongue firmly pressed to my cheek, I am just trying to make a point to those who complain.

    Just going out on a limb here nut I'm assuming he just looked at the state limit rather than the Lake Erie-specific regs. The state limit is 50.

    State wide limit is now 40 except for specific waters. Specific waters in this case would be Lake Erie at 30.

    No, I just posted the wrong number for the perch, you would indeed be only allowed 210 per week.

    Hmmmm... so if a guy takes his 2 kids out for a fun fishing day trolling for walleye (hypothetically)..... and lets say that guy wants his kids to enjoy the day and revel in the excitement of reeling in almost every fish. This could be attributed to the "guy" staying very busy with boat control, baiting lines, replacing leaders, resetting trips, setting boards, netting fish, applying sunscreen and force feeding water into 10-13 yo boys. Now granted, the boys reel in numerous Farm animals as well as walleye during the day, but they do reel in almost all of the fish for a total of 18 walleyes (3 people in the boat). Since they truly have limited awareness of what they are reeling in until it gets near the back of the boat, does this then mean that the law has been "broken"?

    try and tell a kid that he's done fishing... and oh i need to catch my fish now..............

    Default Nothing Wrong

    with taking the kids and explain the laws to them . They are our future outdoors men and women so why not . Im sure they have no problem stopping fishing when your limit is caught because they know its the law, same thing here . The kids are never to young to learn .
