    Question Anyone fishing Douglas Crappie?


    Just looking to see if anyone is fishing Douglas Lake Crappie?
    Are you doing any good? What is a typical size crappie for Douglas?
    I know the limit is 10" and 15 fish per day, how many can you keep if you fish
    several days legally? I don't want to overharvest and then get caught.
    Thanks,
    Bassky

    I've always thought the possession limit is two days......but I'd get a fishing regulations handbood and check.. or call TWRA. just to be sure. If you live here and put a few limits into the freezer, no one pays much attention to that, but if your keeping them on ice in a cooler... I don't know.
    I just checked online.. it reads.. "the total possession limit is twice the daily creel limit, and you may not have more than the daily creel limit with you while afield".
    Good Fishing.

    Default Limits

    So if you have a limit of 15 fish, you can only have 30 in possession. What if you eat the fish after the first day? You now only have 15 in possession. Does this allow you to catch another 15 to make a total of 30? Okay, I got my possession limit filled. How is the white bass or sauger fishing in early April?
    Thanks,
