That is really great news, most of us have noticed a big difference in the size of the fish being caught at the Berry this year but I think the reason is for two reasons. The main reason is the slot limit but because of the slot limit a lot of people did not fish the Berry this year. If you talk to the people that run the marina you will find that the number of people fishing the lake were down in 2003. A lot of people just did not fish the lake because of the new slot limit and as far as I'm concerned that was a good thing. I just hope it stays that way this coming year because if people hear about the fish being bigger they might return and then I would doubt the numbers would be as good in 2004. I guess time will tell and no matter what the people do, the new slot limit will be the best thing they could have done to improve the fishing at one of our favorite lakes. WH2
