I don't see anything wrong with that. If he wants to keep fishing and is giving it away to people who aren't catching whats so wrong? I can understand if he's keeping everything he catches but he isn't. It would suck if you had a limit of how many fish you are allowed to catch a day whether you keep it or not.

Trout aren't going to make it very long in those waters as the temp will get to hot anyways so they will die off eventually.

 

i agree with monk, the limit is 5. if he wants to keep fishing keep 4 and throw the rest back until he's done. give the fish and other anglers a fighting chance.

 

I believe ive read somewhere on here that it is illegal to fill someone else's limit idk ive never read the regs that close cause i dont keep fish real often but ive had days this year where me and a buddy have caught 15 to 20 stocked trout in one day on our fly rods and never kept one of them and we were the only ones at the lake catchin fish i see your point with the guy fillin other limits but in all reality the fish are put in to be fished out youll never catch one in august when the water temp is high cause there ether gona be fished out or die off it sucks to see people do stuff that is wrong but if the game wardens dont catch them all we can do is complain ive seen a guy using 6 rods to fill his limit this year it sucks to see people ruin a good sport but you got those kind of people everywhere and unfortunately we cant avoid it

is that all?
id like to know why people just get mad over nothing. the bragging can be annnoying, but all he was doing was giving everyone else some fish, and you're getting mad about it? did he give you any fish?

+1 I don't see anything wrong with it. Just helping others out.

 

him giving the fish away is not the point. the fish are stocked in limited numbers for anglers to catch and enjoy. if he's catching and removing 20+ per day that means less people get to enjoy catching them. and who are you to tell us what we can get mad over? the regs are in place for a reason. follow them.

 

The limit is all hes allowed. Giving them a way isnt his right. Just breaming the law or rules. Id turn him in myself.

Yeah what's wrong with you guys? If this guy wants to drag a net across the lake, remove every trout, and start handing them out he should be allowed to. The fish are going to die anyways.

I don't know about you but I don't go fishing to have fun and hopefully catch some fish, I go to have somebody give me fish.

Since this guy was so interested in feeding the masses I wonder if he bothered to actually help those who weren't getting them. You know the whole "give a man a fish..." thing.

Why are you guys saying these fish will die anyways!? I have had plenty fun catching stocked trout on the ice ( during the winter time and in the cold) so they must not all die off in the summer. And when I say I have caught them ice fishing I don't mean just a few, I'm talking a limit in a few hours, so I'm with this guy, don't hand them out, they aren't hard to catch if you aren't smart enough to catch them, then you don't need them!

Many places also restock in the fall. If a trout makes it through the summer in one of our lakes, that fish probably just performed a miracle!

You do know they stock again in the fall just for that right?

 

for as nice as the weather is there are a lot of people whining and complaining lately

 

OK I have never paid much attention to how often they stock them, but still they aren't that hard to catch, why hand them out? I can see taking a limit out and handing them out to someone who can't physically get out and fish. But to hand out as many as you can catch is something else.

not everyone knows how to catch a stocked trout. and since most caught trout bleed when hooked, why waste the fish?

 

They do survive in some of the deeper quarries but not in most ponds. The place that I ice fish for them releases them in the fall. Unfortunately this year they have decided to do all the releases in the spring.

I notice a lot of comments about people being too nosey or worrying about what other people do. I personally have a vested interest in Ohio's fishery and believe it is everyones responsiblity to help protect the resource. There is such a thing as overharvesting.

The wind was terrible. my first battery died within 30 minutes of leaving the dock.even though that is true, I'm just play'n....... 80 degrees in april and a bucket of fish (what else iz there???)

The funny thing is that i almost gave them to some shore fishermen because i didn't really feel like cleaning them after fishing all day...(glad i changed my mind, they were delicious)

You make a very good point!!!!!!!!!!

Would it make you mad if these trout were caught from a pole!? Lol btw most of the trout I have ever caught spit the hook when in hand let alone be hooked enough to bleed.....

The people excepting the fish from
This guy are just as guilty i like to catch my own fish if i dnt wanna catch em i go to store and buy em. For me the fun part is catching them so if you get your limit get out of the way or help someone catch em im
Sure they would appriciate the help more than the fish you just give them.

Read the DNR's facebook response on the homepage of this site....there was a very similar thread. As the DNR said it's a fair chase issue. You're not allowed to catch other peoples limits. Like Peon said, show them how...don't just catch them for them.

 

its illegal and wrong.. not to mention he taking up a nice space for another young boy to be fishing and learning to love the sport instead that little boy has to go down the path where they are not bitig and gets disintereste in fishing and the fishing world loses another youth to video games!!!!!!!!

 

If the limit was 5 fish, that's all the guy is allowed to take from the lake. Every fish taken after that and not put back is against the law. If caught by the game warden he will be fined for over harvest.................Mark

Mark,
how are the cats biting at WB... was gonna come saturday but the weather was killing me.... Prob be down this weekend for sure to get some bait and cats...lol

 

here the deal on stocked trout ..the guy did them a favor because after there hooked and fight in this warm water they will die..so would you rather see them dead on the bank or going to feed someones family ..

 

Would rather see him leave after he gets his limit or help the others catch some instead of continuing to fish for his own greedy satification
