Whitefish Limit? - axionfish - 02-21-2009 I was wondering if there was a limit on Whitefish? I caught 2 of 'em today and released them as i was unaware if we had to release them or not. Those Whitefish can put up a good fight. Today was the first time i ever caught one probably because i decided to try out the Famed "WEEB" today and was utterly impressed even though all I caught was the two. The place i tried is one i dont see many people talking about and is where the river comes into rockport res. One was pulled in using a #18 tan BH scud and the other one took my #22 black zebra midge rigged with a split shot and a strike indicator. Looking forward to fishing there again. I want to know if there is a good way and/or recipe to cook those whities? I heard they were tasty fish and am wantin to try one. Also, do you gut 'em like a trout or fillet 'em like a bass? Anyway, i'll post a couple pics and thanks.

Limit on white fish is 10. Hope I have'nt miss read it.[:/] The remaining Weber river is 4 trout. WEBER RIVER (Summit County) (From the first I-80 bridge upstream from Echo Reservoir (near Exit 164) upstream to I-80 bridge near Wanship (near Exit 156)). ARTIFICIAL FLIES AND LURES ONLY. • Limit 2 trout. [signature] Re: [axionfish] Whitefish Limit? - lunkerhunter2 - 02-21-2009 The Mountain whitefish limit is 10 statewide. The only other restrictions are at Bear lake where there are special regs on the 2 species in there. You can have 10 whities in possession(total at your home, camp, or while you are fishing. If you have 5 in the freezer, you can only catch 5 unless you eat some of what you have. That help? P.S. They are very good eating. Smoked or pan fried like a trout. Dis-regard the myth that they are trash fish, they are actually related to trout. A little different bone structure is all.[cool] [signature] Re: [lunkerhunter2] Whitefish Limit? - packfish - 02-24-2009 [quote lunkerhunter2]The Mountain whitefish limit is 10 statewide.

[signature] Re: [lunkerhunter2] Whitefish Limit? - lunchbox - 02-25-2009 The Logan has probably the biggest average size whitefish in the state. Very rare to catch them under 18" [signature] Re: [lunchbox] Whitefish Limit? - gstott - 02-25-2009 I saw some little guys down low by the golf course when I fished it last Friday, but all the whitefish I've actually hooked into have been around 18-20". They're pretty healthy fish. Here's a pretty typical Logan whitefish. [signature] Re: [gstott] Whitefish Limit? - packfish - 02-25-2009 Nice Whitey [signature] |
