the new Iowa law that say's if you put it in the live well, you can not return it to the lake, you must clean it .

vote #1 YES

such a dumb law. what if i put an illegal fish in my live well because the kids want to watch it swim around?? do i take the chance of getting busted for keeping a short fish because it's the law now???

yes,
per dnr:

It is prohibited to sort, cull, high-grade or replace any fish already in possession. Participants in permitted black bass tournaments are exempted. Any fish taken into possession by holding in a live well, on a stringer, or in other fish holding devices is part of the daily bag limit. Once the daily bag limit of a particular species is reached, fishing for that species is permitted as long as all fish of that species caught are immediately released.
