[quote=DTro]I think you could go round and round with that one Gordie, but if you release the fish, then I see it as no longer in your possession and as long as you stay at least one fish under the bag limit you can cull as many fish as you want. That is what most contest in MN do. [/quote]Read More..

You can go a long ways this year. Something I have also noticed is the lack of major sandbars this year. Last year's high water and winds leveled the lake pretty flat and it is going to take some wave action to get things back to the norm.Read More..
