The pools between Rocky Point and Smithland also don't have the creeks and cover that pools such as Smithland have. Smithland Pool is one of the best fisheries on the Ohio if not the best and they have a 12" limit.

Personally just another IDNR failed attempt of trying to manage a fishery.

What any club should/will do if this passes is just go across the bridge and take out of KY.
I think this is an excellent attempt at managing the fisheries. It just in it's current state not an excellent standard for tournaments.Its easy to forget tournament anglers are the smallest group of people involved in this, and just because you dont like it for your tournaments doesnt mean its bad for everybody.

I hope people who come on here to complain about it make/made attempts to reach the meetings to express concerns and or idea. Nothing irks me more than hearing people complain yet take no action in regards to the issue they have.
