Henry's
#20
[quote truchas_ole]It was cold at 7:30 when I brushed the ice off part of my pontoon to start fishing. It was 22 degrees, but the fish were already feeding and I needed to be off the lake by 1:30. Within 5 minutes I had released my first fish. After that it took well over an hour to hook up again. The last 1 1/2 hours rocked. It was fish on every 10 to 15 minutes. The best part of the day was the banter between about five veterans of the lake at the mouth of Duck Creek talking about what the Fish and Game officer told one earlier on. He claimed that the officer said, according to the regulations, that once you caught and released two fish you were done for the day. I thought that they were going to charge me for the entertainment that went along with that conversation. It was hilarious!!! I heard great news today from a good friend who has fished Henry's Lake for four decades. He said that the old biologist who thought big fish were more important than many fish was coming back to manage the lake. Hope that is true! Saturday was the best weather I have had at Henry's over the past 4 years, even when starting at 22 degrees.[/quote]
I know this is an older post, but someone misheard what the C.O. said. Regs state if you have 2 fish in your possession, you can't fish anymore, even if you're releasing the fish. It's been that way for years.
