    Default Size and Limit on Ross Barnett Rez ???


    Call me stupid but I'm confused on the size and limit for Crappie on Ross Barnett Rez . I was reading The Clarion Ledger yesterday and it mentioned Lake Washington and Ross Barnett Rez size and limits . Rather than go back and try to understand what I read I thought it would be better to ask here . So what size Crappie can you keep and how many Crappie can you keep on Ross Barnett Rez ? Thanks

    I believe it is 9" and up on the size and 30 per person

    Unless it has just changed and I missed it there is no size limit on the Ross Barnett reservoir. 30 per person

    Thought we had a state size limit of 10" everywhere except where posted in the digest. A call to the board found there isn't a state size limit.

    The wildlife guys were doing a survey at MCC's Ross Barnett weigh-in asking if we would support a size limit being implemented. I didn't hear a single fisherman not support the idea! That being said I have seen more huge slabs come out of the lake this year than in the last couple.

    There is talk of a 10" limit in the works.

    I'd love to see a 9-10" size limit put on the fish but it won't work. Not enough GW to enforce it. We've been throwing back 9 inch fish and more than once you see 2 guys in a boat whispering, WOW, did you see them throw that back? lol

    Yep Don Don I have definitely had people ask me what are you throwing those size fish back. And one guy really got a little miffed the other day when I threw back what was probably a good 2 pound plus Croppie that obviously have not spawned.
