I’m an avid fisherman and guide I target all species and have fished on lake of the woods for over 40 years. I disagree with lowering the walleye limit to 2. If I had to decide on ways to increase the walleye population on Lake of the Woods I would implement a 2 fish limit for none residents and all fishing lodges,guides,outfitters etc would only be allowed to keep enough fish for shore lunch, all other fish caught would be released. Also I would declare Tranquil Channel a fish sanctuary where anglers would not be allowed to fish this area until early June as it is a spawning habitat for the walleye and year after year I have witnessed countless anglers coming and going from this area in May taking more walleye than needed. Also I would implement a slot size similar to the Winnipeg River. I am of Metis decent and hope my comments are read and taken into consideration.
