[QUOTE="Slappy, post: 364773, member: 7608"] If I'm targeting deep fish in late summer, I have no problem keeping 11 inchers and stopping at a limit or going shallower for catch and release. On the flip side I'm not keeping a 28" walleye caught in 30 FOW if it is able to swim down strongly. That fish has a chance in the water but none in the box, and I'm not showing up at the cleaning station with a pig unless it goes belly up. I'm not arguing against catch and keep from deep water, especially in late summer when water temps are higher. I take exception to NDGF permitting tournaments where they know this happens with no rules preventing it. See below with AIM (catch, record, release format) participants talking about targeting fish in 30 - 45 FOW.
