[cool][#0000ff]I have fished all over the country and I just have to shake my head and wonder at some of the wacko regulations anglers have to deal with.[/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]You have your problems with crustaceans. Over here in Utah we cannot use live minnows...and if we catch crawdads we have to kill them before we leave the water...no taking them home to kill in the pot. Also, we can't use corn for bait. [/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff]Oh yeah, on some bass lakes the limit is six, but you can't keep anything OVER 12 inches. And with yellow perch, some of the worst lakes have limits of 50, and the best lakes have limits of 20. One of the lakes that has been closed to perch for several years, and is overpopulated with stunting fish, the limit is 10...and you have to keep the first 10 you catch...no culling for size.[/#0000ff]
