Walleye question? ??

 Done it many times pre 12:00, post 12:00. It's a new day plain & simple.
 
crappy
 

Yea I forgot to put pyme in there, but I really don't see why you couldn't keep 12 if you got both licenses I mean your legal but I'd like to see if he says what the law is, I mean the fish rant marked pa/oh I just thought this was an interesting questions, like say I bang 6 real fast on p.a. side I can go over and fish Ohio I got 12 fish now Idk

I believe for either state on pymatuning 6 is your possession limit.

Sure would like to be there when you try explaining why you have 12 walleyes in your possession after 12 AM. I'd record it and put it online so everyone else to get a good laugh too. Of course you won't like the fine after all that explaining . Good luck with that.

See now I got all your minds turning lol

Ok so maby not the pa/Ohio 2 limit part but I don't see the after 12 part being not legal, be tuff to explain that forsure

The last time I fished at the spillway a few years back, I started fishing around 4 pm and limited out at 11 pm. I told the warden at I intended to fish the next day,and if it was alright to put my fish in a cooler in my van,and fish after midnight. He said yes. I had a not so good experience back in the 70's at the NUT, for some reason back then people fish all night for steelhead/ salmon. I limited out before midnight,and bagged my 3 fish and put them in the cooler ice in my van. At midnight I started fishing again after catching a nice fish,I was approached by a warden and ask to meet him in the building.He claimed.I caught over my limit, I told him that the 3 in the cooler where before 12.am and this one was after.He actually felt the fish in the cooler and said they where not cold enough to be from yesterday. I tried to tell him they where only in where about a little over and hour but he wasn't buying it. He saw me catch the fish after midnight and suggested a field settlement,because the hearing if I wanted one would be the first day of buck gun season.lol I agreed to the payment on the spot,but new I did nothing wrong. I think it was like a $35 fine. Funny thing he never even gave me a receipt.lol I was young and dumb.lol It was the only bust I've ever had.lol

Great debate guys but I think the answer is only one limit. Read below. Pulled it from the PA regulations section of the book you
get with you license. So if you if you fished from one night into the next morning sounds like that is still considered one trip.
 
"To have on a stringer or in a container or otherwise in possession, while in or along waters of the Commonwealth or immediately returning therefrom, more than the daily creel limit of any fish for one person"
 
Tight lines!,

As others have said it's possession limit.

I think this would be the applicable rule,
To catch, kill, or possess more than one day’s limit of any fish, except:
(a) at your residence, and
(b) you may possess two days’ limit while traveling to your residence from an overnight fishing trip of two or more consecutive days.

As always, if you have any questions get a written response from the pfbc.

I'm pretty sure about the two day field possession limit,  what about in your freezer? Is there a limit to fish in your freezer? Just curious.

Prob. date, & can't be more than a yr. from it would be my guess.

100 feet from fish entrance? Why is the cable right at it at the spillway? Anybody catchin' more than 3 trout/steel at Erie should be fined to maxxx & inpound car/truck 
 
crappy

I was checked 5 times in one year one of them in ohio for safety checks. but they did check my cooler after loading my boat on trailer for fish limits. and this was in pa. they never said anything about having each persons limit in a separate cooler.
