Catch & Release

[mkalink]

Straight from the Ohio revised code Chapter 1533 Fishing and Hunting:

Throughout the state it shall be unlawful for any person to take or possess more than six saugeyes, six sauger, or six walleyes, singly or in the aggregate in any one day while on of any stream, river or other body of water where fishing therein requires the licenses set forth in section 1533.32 of the Revised Code;.
If you and your buddy are fishing for walleye and you have 12 in the box. You continue fishing and catch another one technically you are in violation you are not allowed to possess more than 6 per person at any one time. This is my point if the ODNR wants to cite you they are well within the law. Will they? probably not.

Hoytman this is for you. I do agree with you on the sheephead, nothing like the pull and fight of a big one.
G) It shall be unlawful for any person at any time to place or dispose of a dead fish in a stream, river, pond, lake, or any other body of water or upon the banks thereof, except dead fish or parts of fish may be used as bait or a lure.

The Black Bass season was set up to allow for catch and release.

As for the evidence of over bagging, pictures with date and time imprint and testimony from the arresting officer will suffice in court. Seen it
