    The Late Ice Period is amost upon us. There will soon be a mad rush of Panfish to the shallows and we as fisher people will follow them there. This is a time of the year when Panfish are susceptible to over harvest. Some of the best fishing occurs this time of the year and we as sportsmen need to remember to practice Selective Harvest. I know it’s ok to take fish home to eat, I love a fresh meal too, but it is all too easy to take more fish than we actually need. It is also just as important to release the bigger fish to preserve the future of good fishing.

    Have a great end to the Ice fishing season.

    Good fishing,

    Great post Corey!

    I was going to start a similar post as I already see it happening on open water.. I couple younger guys keep hitting up the same spot on the river in town keeping near limits of 11″-13″ crappies.

    Thanks for all the positive responses. It’s nice to know that there are others who truely believe in Selective Harvest.

    Good fishing,
