I think your right on, also I think Anglers could do more than they do by releasing the bigger fish. I read an article on Walleye and it is incredible how many eggs a fish can have per pound of body weight. I personally release any Walleye over 24 inches just my way of pitching in. A picture lasts longer and is environmentally friendly. I really think that the DNR should put some assets into educating fisherman on the impact of killing the bigger fish. I have overall had a tough year on Starvation for I have not caught a Walleye over 24 inches. I personally would like them to have some type of slot to help out. I also would like them possibly to have maybe one or two years of no limit on Walleye under 20 inches. But the fact is I am not a Biologist and really don't understand the proper way to get the results that i would like to see. I complained about Strawberry for a long time but after seeing the results that they have achieved I became a believer. Bottom line I would like the DNR to try something like that on Starvation, i just have seen too many big Walleye killed and personally I think it is a shame.
