Whistling Gull I have an opening in my graphics dept. can I get you an application?
Took an overdue family vacation over Easter to the Florida Keys. We drove down (looong drive) camped and rented a boat for 6 days. The fishing was fantastic, if you go buy a more comprehensive fish ID book then we had, we caught a lot of strange fish we couldn't identify and released. We did eat fish every day that were on our ID chart. The highlight of the fishing and the eating were the tuna. Met an 80 year old guy from Michigan at the fish cleaning station who cleaned the first tuna we caught he put it in his cooler and insisted we come to his RV for dinner, the tuna he prepared was the best fish I have ever eaten. Connection to the TFF? Looking for a family vacation without a 32 hour drive? Great fishing, camping, lodging, boat rentals, all day on the water with family no video games sometimes poor cell phone reception or a good excuse to say your phone didn't work, the TFF!

Consistent 3 walleye bag limit, would really welcome that! Fish managers have used the sliding scale bag limit to regulate the overall harvest. A lot of people would agree that has been on the conservative side, especially on bodies of water with good natural reproduction or in the case of the TFF great natural reproduction. Slot limit, I like the no min. size limit on the flowage I personally don't see a need to keep fish over 18" it is a nice option however when ice fishing, don't know what the mortality rate is on fish with swallowed # 8 treble hooks.
Looking forward to May 2nd.
