§ 69.12b. Lake Erie walleye and yellow perch adaptive management for establishing daily limits.
The Executive Director or a designee will monitor the walleye and yellow perch populations in Lake Erie taking into account commercial and recreational harvest. Based on that information, the Executive Director will establish daily limits for walleye and yellow perch that are necessary and appropriate for the better protection and management of the fishery. The Executive Director will establish the daily limits for walleye and yellow perch each year and announce them on or before April 15. In any given year, the Executive Director may revise the daily limit for walleye or yellow perch if the Executive Director determines that conditions warrant a revision. The daily limits will remain in effect until the Executive Director establishes new daily limits. Anglers are responsible for obtaining the current daily limits for walleye and yellow perch on Lake Erie including Presque Isle Bay prior to fishing those waters.
