Fillet Rules leads to a restraining order...

The ODNR really needs to sit down and think this kind of action out, before making a knee jerk reaction to a single area problem. The new "fillet rule" was put into place to stop poaching in the Lake Erie area. Well, if there's a problem in that area and the ODNR is going to make up a new rule to stop it...then it should only apply to that area, not the entire state. :smiley_arrogant:

They've backed off of part of the fillet rule to allow a "patch" of skin to remain on transported fish. However, an attourney in Ottawa county has found another wording issue in the rule that effects every angler in Ohio. :smiley_armscrossed: Nuts!

These guys really needed to think this one out, before putting it into action. :smiley_asswhip:
