Special bag and length limits apply to some lakes, rivers and Fish Management Areas. Other fishes considered to be non game fishes have no daily bag or possession limits, except as noted in individual Fish Management Area regulations. (Note:  Total length is the maximum length of the fish, with the mouth closed and the tail fin pinched together. The best way to obtain this length is to push the fish's snout up against a vertical surface with the mouth closed and the fish laying along a tape measure, then pinch the tail fin closed and determine the total length. Do NOT pull a flexible tape measure along the curve of the fish.
