just a reminder that Treasureton changed to a 20" minimum.

Thanks for the reminder. I went up there yesterday and didn't catch anything over 20".

I'm not sure there are a lot of fish over 20" in there. I've fished it 7 times through the ice this year and have not caught a single fish even close to 20". It's not the Treasureton of old. With that being said, it is still a good fishery and the fish do appear to be healthy. Hopefully a good water year will boost the inches.

I don't ice fish it- I wouldn't eat a fish out of there. Bad tatse compared to other places. But I can tell you there are fish bigger than 20" in there, I had a wonderful fall there. I think the regs if enforced will push the average up along with consistent water.

Good idea to remind everyone about the new regulations. Many anglers are not aware of regulations that have been in place for several years. Only a few seem to do a good job of keeping up to date with new changes.

The fish and game has posted new signs up there that are very easy to read. 20" is written very big and bold.

I like the new reg. I agree with bmurr that the fish are not as big as they have been. i don't think they are quite as healthy either. Most of the fish are fine but I have caught a few skinny fishies. My biggest fish this winter is 18". In the days of old that was an average size. don't get me wronge I know there are still some big fish there but they are few and far between. I hope that the new reg makes a difference.

I agree, the fish were bigger on average years past, but we did catch several 21, 22 inchers up there in November. We caught a lot of fish but only five or six over twenty.
I am glad to see the twenty inch minimum!
