Did anyone ever mention a higher size limit (18")?
Some mentioned slotting. It was towards the end of the presentation, so it was hard to follow with all the noise. What I got was slotting the size doesn't really matter because they stock it every year and if you increase the size, you will have a log jam at certain sizes.
If you fished in the early 90s, remember all the small walleyes being caught? If they increase the size limit, it would take even longer to catch a legal.
They determined 15 inches was a good size to keep the fish moving out of the lake to make room for the next stockings.
As long as they keep pumping fish into this lake
and they live slotting won't improve it anymore than stocking it each year would.
