[B]KAR 115-7-1

Fishing; legal equipment, methods of taking, and other provisions.

(1) Each individual shall place all legally caught fish on a stringer, cord, cable, or chain, or in a
basket, sack, cage, or other holding device, separate from those fish caught by any other individual.[/B]
Crappiewhipped and eatmorfish:

A very important section has been omitted from the quotes of the regulation provided elsewhere on this page. The section in front of the reg causing the confusion has been missing. Fish only need to be separated in certain areas described in the section that has been omitted which I've provided below (the blue text).

...(g) The following additional requirements shall apply in the flowing portions and backwaters of the Missouri river and in any oxbow lake through which the Kansas-Missouri boundary passes:
(1) Each individual shall place all legally caught fish on a stringer, cord, cable, or chain, or in a basket, sack, cage, or other holding device, separate from those fish caught by any other individual....

You can find the full regulation HERE.

So in short, anglers are not required to separate their catches in Kansas unless fishing on the Missouri river as described above.
