Also remember, whatever you have caught and may still be in your freezer goes towards your possession limit. So if you are fishing and caught your limit (4 or 2) and you still have some in the freezer from two days before, you are over your limit.
Absolutely not...... 4/2 is a daily limit. You are not over limit if you have some in the freezer from 2 days prior.
The Provincial possession limit for total walleye from combined zones of is 6(meaning if he has in possession 4 for the bay he cannot keep more walleye from the bay). That means one with 6 walleye in the freezer cannot keep another walleye they must release them. It depends on how many fish the person has in stored possession and the zones they were caught.
While the regulations for a specific Fisheries Management Zone limit the number of fish an individual can catch and retain from that zone, provincial possession limits limit the total number of fish of a given species a person can have in their possession (including storage) which have been harvested from more than one zone. Always check the regulations for the zone in which you are fishing to ensure that you aren’t exceeding the catch and possession limit for that zone.
