The change to limits isn’t going to make things better. If anything it is either going to deter people from fishing as often and enjoying the water or it will give people more reason to poach. I am a guide on LOTW and the walleye population to me is better then ever. The walleyes are simply just shallower chasing bait. Less walleye live in the main basins which is why I think this is a flawed analysis. Keep it 4 and take the limit down for non-residents as they are the ones who take over limits as they eat there shore lunch and take a limit home every day they go. Also, the change to the picture regulation is only going to steer people away from fishing and enjoying catching quality fish. Tournament officials who stand by protecting the fishery by only using photo images are not going to have the opportunity to grow the sport. Promote safe handing and don’t steer people away from the joy of fishing, that’s the memories.
