The problem is the laws have been changed over the years to read limit and possession is the same thing, even if the fish are under your sofa. The F&G really needs to have a campaign to inform and teach people the current codes and regs. I'm seeing 50% or more of the replies on this site with some confusion including me! They must have an officer that could be forwarded a link to this site and thread and come on to splain things to all of us! I believe we do pay for an information area of the F&G. I would be appalled if I was them after seeing 10 different interptetations of their codes!!! [img][url "http:///"][/url][/quote]"]http://www.bigfishtackle.com/...b.gif[/img][/quote][/url]
I have forwarded this to my buddy. LIke I said I think his title is Regional Conservation officer. We probably wont hear from him until Monday at the earliest. If I can call him on Saturday I will try. We will get an official reply on this I will make sure of it.
MMDon, you said "The problem is the laws have been changed over the years to read limit and possession is the same thing, even if the fish are under your sofa."
I sure that is not quite correct but I am hoping Gary step in here and help us figure it out. On the page that says the Regions. Below it will say Statewide bag and possession limits that apply in that region.
Those bag and possession limits apply to all water unless there are "Region Exceptions" Those different bag or possession limits will be under the special rules. Again I am sure that the Possession limit ends at the anglers front door. I will get Gary on here I promises to help us get it right, OKAY. Ron
