L.W.F.C. Accepts Notice of Intent to Adjust Toledo Bend Limits
Posted: 12/6/04

The Louisiana Wildlife and Fisheries Commission accepted a notice of intent at its December 2, 2004 meeting to adjust the limits on spotted and yellow bass fishing on Toledo Bend Reservoir. This proposal is a result of work with the state of Texas designed to benefit anglers by clarifying regulations.

The changes deal specifically with the size limit for spotted bass and creel limits for yellow bass. Under the proposal, there would not be a size limit for spotted bass caught on the reservoir, and there would not be a creel limit on yellow bass. The notice also includes a statement that would disallow the possession of any filets of any fish species while on the water.

There will be a 120-day public comment period before the commission meets to vote on the ratification of the proposal.
