NO CHANGE FOR LAKE ERIE FISHING LIMITS

NO CHANGE FOR LAKE ERIE FISHING LIMITS

WILLOUGHBY -- The Great Lakes Fisheries Commission has done what few anglers thought would happen: Maintain the status quo on Lake Erie-caught walleye and yellow perch.

While meeting Thursday and Friday, the commission recommended no changes in daily bag limits for Lake Erie-caught walleye and yellow perch for Ohio this year.

"It makes me happy because I didn't want to be the guy who told anglers, charter captains and bait dealers that there would be cuts in the daily bag limits," said Ray Petering, the Ohio Division of Wildlife's fisheries administrator.

The daily bag limit for Lake Erie-caught walleye will remain at four and six with the switch to the larger bag coming occurring May 1.

Perch anglers will be able to keep 30 fish per through all of Ohio's waters.
