    i've had 3 replys, and all 3 told me what the possession limit was in place for, sorry guys but I already new what it was for, but it still don't make sense,

    you buy your lisense to fish any lake you like, you are allowed 30 fish per day.
    and if you have 3 friends with you fishing, that is 3 more sets of fishing lisense, each person same as you, are allowed 30 fish per day.

    if your lisense say your daily creel is 30 fish, that is all you should keep in a 24 hour period. now if you fish another day your lisense say you are allowed 30 fish that day. they are your fish you bought your fishing lisense, you can do anything you want with those 60 fish, and be legally within the law, but if you take them home to use for your family food, you have broken the law.

    what I'm saying is the law don't make sense, instead of saying 30 fish creel per day, why don't they just say 30 fish limit period. it would make more sense.

    Actually the law is pretty clear on the possession limits.......They are there to limit just what you're talking about.

    What is to keep you from catching a limit on one lake, taking those fish to camp and then going back out and catching another limit?

    Your word? Sorry, there are way too many folks that just want to pound their chest and say the wore them out.........harvesting every single fish they are legally authorized to take.

    Again, it is your right, but take what you need and be done with it. Hundreds of fillets in the freezer is overkill, but again, do what you want , especially if LEGAL.

    Indiana and possession limits

    In the state of Indiana, they do not consider fish at your primary residence as part of your possession limit.

    Most other states do.. This basically means that you can go on multiple fishing trips ,, catch your legal limits, and freeze and keep whatever you want.

    now that I like, make sense, sounds like your allowed a creel limit each time you go fishing, you buy your lisense, you should be able to keep your daily creel limit if you want.
