Fish Trends/ females vs jacks

[hot-n-tot501]

Oh my gosh people, let folks that pay their money for an Ohio fishing liscense fish how they want. Unless the ODNR changes the regs, theres nothin anybody can do. Me personally, ill keep any nice walleye i catch other than during the walleye run in the river. At that time, limits of jacks are relatively easy and theres no need for me to keep a spawning female. But, everybody can fish how they want and thats all there is to it. PERIOD So, with that said, let it go! Good luck fishin

The spawn success is 75% environmental ( temp , silt , oxygen , sun , wind , floods , waves , GOD stuff! ) that is why you can have about the same amount of breeder females from year to year and have some fantastic hatches or some duds!! It is really very simple. Much like our winter / summer. Last summer in Michigan ( mid July ) 6 nights with lows in the 40's , and this winter cold as Heck. 2 years ago and for the last decade all boo hoo a our global warming , and now they call it climate change because it is cold as heck for 4 months and that about covers everything HUH?? Plain and simple DNR will adjust bag limits as needed. We have never had such good management of our resources!!! And it will provide for years yo come , as long as we keep supporting it!!
