Here is the response that I got from Bill Loy:
"The by-catch is very low manly White bass they gill in nets and the walleye we get out when we are pulling in the nets."
I have asked him to clarify, but it sounds like the size of openings in the net are small enough that anything larger than a white bass won't get their heads stuck in the nets and can be safely released (except as pointed out by doggonefishin the thrashing of the other fish takes its toll on other fish caught in the nets).
