O hell yeah baby!!!!!!!!!!!! So next year then I hope. What awesome news!!!!!
Sweet!
Not sure this translates into a new ruling just because the majority voted "yes". I think it may have to go before the DNR board?

Not a ruling. A suggestion.
Good news but I am sad to see rule #10 passed...some of these trophy regulation lakes in far northern WI have extremely delicate ecosystems and just do not need tournament pressure on them

Agree

I never thought of that and they certainly could have. I just think a lot of tournament guys want to go fish tournaments on these trophy lakes. I fish tournaments myself but I am aware of the potential negative impact it could have on certain fisheries and think it is just unnecessary. Hoping if that does become a new rule the DNR employees in charge of permitting tournaments will think it through and deny permits on said "delicate" bodies of water.

Im not aware of many of these proposed rule changes that pass that DONT become law? Last year's advisory question was a "suggestion"... this is a proposed rule change. There is no reason it wouldnt be written into law if the majority votes yes correct? Why would they even do these things then?
I't possible that the release can come as late as 8 hours after the catch.....in my book that is not "Catch and Release"
I don't know many smallies that would be in good shape after spending all day in a livewell
A few years back year long bass season made it all the way to Walker but he shot it down. Hopefully the same doesn't happen this time.
Yeah but evers? That *****, unless he can find a way to tax it, it'll never happen.
so you’re saying every smallie weighed in a tournament will die?
I’m guessing you’re just a tournament hater!

Regarding #10. The local biologist will still have the last say on whether the trophy water will get a tournament permit issued. There have been occasions that the biologist denied permits for a 10 boat club permit on some of my local lakes. They said that lakes are too small and fragile for a tournament but the daily limit is still 5 fish 14".

Just curious, why even file for a 10 boat permit? Im under the impression you can have up to 19 boats w/o the need for a permit.

this is true but then legally you cannot "cull" without the permit

Correct, about the legal culling. The club is very by the book.
Ok

Yes hopefully the local biologists will still have the authority to do so!Regarding #10.
