I'm a Kenora resident born and raised, and I feel there is more options available then just cutting the walleye limits in half! I wish the public had a real input because i would suggest the following:

1. No walleye shore lunches! I'm on the lake a lot and I'm always observing lodges and solo guides putting on outlandish shore lunches for their paid guests. There are so many other species available, give our walleyes a break!!

2. Close the walleye ice fishing season on Lake of the Woods February 1st!! Give those walleyes a chance to spawn, and all of those 10-14 inchers that are getting thrown back from 40 ft all perish!!

3. You're never going to win the battle with Indigenous netting but at least hold them accountable when nets are pulled and there are hundreds of rotting fish. Easy fix! All nets have to be identified with contact information. If not, then MNR have the right to pull them and fine the individuals involved. If that can't happen, then no use even slashing the limits!! Just close the dam lake down to no fishing forever!!
