We do not get allot of news reports for pan fish over limits. We get them for Walleye though all the time.
Guy had a false bottom in the freezer in his camper, that was interesting because if he had fished the Saginaw bay, he could have caught more fish, & kept them, than where he was at and got caught. Have to wonder about the intellectual aspect of that goof.
There were two brothers who got caught with, I think it was 67, when the limit was only 5 per person.
Its a stigma up here w/ Walleye I think. Because the fishery is so awesome, and a world class fishery, loaded with fish, people feel if they don't limit they have "Failed". If you do not get your limit, you suck is their thought. My thought if I do not get my limit is this "I'm having Walleye when I get home", assuming I have at least ONE, as to ZERO though.
I'm there because my wife loves Walleye.
