Wow! This thread was orgially about what was catching fish at Patoka. Who cares if someone keeps fish or doesn't. Besides many people all ready no about Patoka wheither there is a photo or not. There is tournaments on the lake every weekend. As for small lakes and ponds, I think we all can agree there is tremendous fishing pressure on them. It's not the limit that is the problem but people who don't follow those rules and keep more than they should or sizes they shouldn't. I think all the chatter is that we can all agree we are passionate about this sport and want what is best. Good luck to all on the water. Whether you practice Catch N Release or have a fish fry!
