Sardis changes

You dont have to be an outlaw to catch way more fish than you need.I live 20mins from Sardis or Butla,work 2nd shift,and could fish every morning and every weekend.My point is if they let me keep 10'' fish it wouldn't take long to catch 100's or 1000's of fish.

Sardis is Fixin to get hammered .Good luck in 2014

I wonder why they only want to do this on Sardis ? What makes it different than the rest of the big 4 ? I do like the 10 inch minimum though and I can live with a limit of 15.

Seems it would make more sense for starters to just make the regs the same at all the Corps Lakes. Dang confusing for someone not familiar, trying to keep all the different rules straight.

Sardis must be the guinea pig

I agree

I hardly ever keep more than 10 fish,thats bout all i want to clean or eat.

It may take some pressure off Sardis and that may be why they are proposing this rule change. Lots of people from Memphis fish Sardis regularly. Folks who don't want to be limited to 15 keepers would be encouraged to go elsewhere. That would not be good for butla since I imagine that it would get more pressure if folks react to new rule like I'm suggesting. And butla don't need more pressure from the Memphis anglers. With gas prices being as high as they are, it would make it a tough choice to go to Sardis from Memphis for fewer fish if someone was trying to load their freezer. I agree that we need to catch what we need and leave the rest. Lots of folks try to catch all they can and often bring a partner in their boat so they can keep 40. I know guys who bring along somebody who almost never fishes and puts them in the back of their boat so that they can catch more than 20 out of the front. :(
