In addition, the daily crappie limit on East and West Lake Sylvia will be five fish, a decrease from the previous 10-fish limit, the release said.
The new limit is a daily bag limit, meaning fishers can keep 10 fish a day and return the next day for another 10 as long as they don t surpass the statewide possession limit, according to the DNR.
The DNR held a public comment period for the proposed change and received more than 3,700 comments. Support varied by lake, but overall, more than 85% of respondents supported the Quality Sunfish Initiative, the DNR said.
