I was of the understanding that Ohio passed it too.  http://www.legislature.state.oh.us/bills.cfm?ID=126_HB_157_PH
 
5. Boats and vessels. No person shall operate any watercraft propelled by a single motor, or any combination of motors, that produces a horsepower rating in excess of ten horsepower on Pymatuning Lake, except a pontoon boat sixteen feet in length or longer propelled by a single motor, or any combination of motors, that produces a horsepower rating of twenty horsepower or less and police or administration watercraft, the number of which shall be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto.
 
 
The underlined part really chaps my ****..

I have been told that one OH state government member stands between 9.9 limit and 20hp limit.  PA has already passed it.  OH anglers please look into your governments stand on this.

I'll take a 20hp limit or a speed limit. 

Also look at the 40" statewide musky length limit that PA has passed.


The Musky length limit of 40" started January 1, 2007.

 
 
Pa length limit of 40" started January 1, 2007 as you said.  I was suggesting OH do the same.  Is this what you meant?

No, it sounded like it was something just signed by PAFBC. I misunderstood what you were trying to explain. I will delete my post. Sorry if you were offended.

Not offended, just wanted clarification.  No problem what so ever.

Have a good rest of the fishing season.

YES ,HE WAS FINED $70.00 I BELIEVE.YES THE WARDEN WAS WATCHING HIM AMONST OTHERS.WHICH HE STATED TO MY NEIGHBOR.MY NEIGHBOR WAS NOT FLYIN THROUGH THE WATER.HE DOES HAVE A VERY HEAVY BENNINGTON LAID OUT PONTOON.HE WAS AWARE HIS MOTOR IS ILLEGAL.THE ONLY REASON HE HAS THIS IS TO GET OF THE WATER IN AN EMERGENCY A 9.9 DOES NOT PUSH THIS BOAT.I UNDERSTAND WHAT HE HAS IS A 18 HP.I WOULD HAVE TO SAY AT LEAST 75 % OF THE BOATS THERE HAVE AT LEAST  15 HORSES.OH BY THE WAY HE WAS TOLD DO NOT MOVE HIS PONTOON FROM THE MARINA.I ALSO UNDERSTAND THE ONLY WAY THAT CAN BE DETERMINED WHAT SIZE IT IS ,IS TO HAVE IT TAKEN APART.I PERSONALLY HAVE A 16 FT SEA NYMPH WITH A 9.9,BUT WITH DIFFRENT PROP THAN ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT.

Wow! Can't think a pontoon would make much difference with an 18. I have seen some with a rooster tail wake behind them moving down the lake.
