legal or not ?

I wouldn't want to take the chance. Just at takes an officer to be having a bad day for it to get real expensive for you

We have a size limit and a creel limit. Does it matter if we meet it in an hour or all day?
Good luck with the officer that checks you.

Cane I agree with you but I will share with you what I was told by the guy that literally keystroked the wording in the new laws. There is a direct correlation between the number of poles an angler is using and the amount of time it takes to catch a limit. If the time it takes to catch a limit is real short then the cheaters who travel long distances would have time to take the first limit back to the hotel/campground and clean them, leave the cooler at the hotel and then go to a different ramp and catch another limit. The locals tend go on home and come back the next day.

So, if he fished in a fruit jar tourney would he be legal?

To many stories of watching locals meeting someone at the ramp and swapping coolers.
