Thread: Rend limits (poachers)

Obviously IL has a daily catch limit, but I have never been able to find an actual possession limit for the state. Most other states do have one, I believe?

Not 100% sure but I have heard that Ill. is a state where you can catch your limit in one lake and go to another lake to catch a limit there????

Yes in Illinois there is no possession limit. You can fish different lakes in the same day. Although there are laws about not taking fish from one lake to another and by law you are supposed to drain your live well on the ramp where you are before you leave. stupid law and does not get enforced due to the fact of the tournaments. I would not recommend having fish in your live well from a different lake, better off to take them home or clean them first.

Rumor has it. There was a recent bust by the CPO for a person or person having 175 over the limit on Rend. Supposidely out of state. and they lost their boat. Any truth to this? If so I think it is GREAT!

There was a recent incident but they were not from out of state, well kinda, some yankees from up by Chicago. They were over the limit by a lot of fish. There was also a KY guy who got a citation for being over the limit by 7 fish as well. Don't believe any property was seized.

Has there been a shad kill yet? Thought about heading up Saturday morning. Hate to see people take advantage of the good fishing yall have.
