Can anyone explain this to me? Why can't we simply keep track of our individual count and can not share one livewell. Why are fishing boat manufacturers able to install more fishing seats than they have livewell spaces?

Per MDC Guidlines:
"The possession limit is twice the statewide daily limit. Fish you take and possess must be kept separate or distinctly identifiable from fish taken by another person. If you are away from your catch, the device holding the fish must be plainly labeled with your full name and address."
