Abstract:
A recently study by fisheries biologists has shown that the 15-inch minimum size limit on walleye pike is not necessary to maintain a healthy population of the fishery in North Carolina’s mountain lakes. Removal of the minimum size would allow anglers to harvest walleye being lost to natural mortality.
