Is it common practice to keep large numbers of trophy size walleye on Erie? Maybe they don't release well?
Enjoy your blog, but some of these picture poses turned my stomach..
Lambast me if I'm missing something.....
I sure wouldn't lambast you.
I'm originally from your neck of the woods, and it is different. The lakes where I grew up are severely restricted this year, mostly with a one walleye limit per day on the Wisconsin side, because my Ojibway cousins can legally spear a large number of walleye in those area lakes based on a treaty that goes back to about 1870.
I also know Nate Herman and his family quite well. I cannot imagine them doing anything to harm a fishery. They are the ultimate in providing fishery protection, proliferation, and family experiences.
They do more for advancing fishing experiences for the elderly and kids than anybody I have ever met. I don't know the particulars of this trip, but I can't believe that the Herman family would do anything but enhance a fishery. Nate, his brothers, and his parents/grandparents, are the ultimate in wildlife enhancement.
They are a very really good conservation minded family, who only have a mentality to improve fisheries management and fun for the disadvantaged.
