Boundary Waters Quetico Forum Fishing Forum Border regs goofiness |
timatkn: "Yea frustrating but I guess I am sort of used to it by now…most lakes I fish consistently have lake specific regs. I have a couple of acquaintances that fish Sag consistently and catching fish is fun. They regularly contribute to the hog board but catching fish to eat is just a by product. If it happens great, but not expected.
And reading the regs…between Ontario and MN you can keep 1 fish over 20” or over 18” so you will have one in the bag almost for sure. If you are by yourself that’s probably more than a meal. If you get more between 17-18” that’s gravy.
I’d like to rip on the slot limits but I’ve observed first hand the benefit. On Kabetogama for 10 years a 22” walleye would be front page news…now maybe a resort will post it if a 2 year old caught it they are so common place. The fishing has been incredible ever since instituting regs. Sorry to hi-jack your thread.

timatkn: "IMHO MN relies on fish biologists and fish surveys to set regs…unless politicians get involved…while Ontario has the luxury of less fishing pressure to just do general regs. Most Ontario lakes are never surveyed, their version of the DNR has a fraction of MN funds.
