OK, I'll bite, what are "the beards". I'm 60 and in 50 years on the ice I've never heard any talk about the Beards. If its slang for Old Timers, I'm a Old Timer and I'm for a gill limit.
The term beards = Amish = :
The term beards = Amish = +
Is this a for sure law, and if so when does it take effect? Don't fish that often in Indiana but want to be up on the law!
A limit would be a start, but I would still prefer a trial program on a few, select BOW. Blanket limits, while quick, cheap, and easy to enforce, could have the opposite effect on some lakes.Oxygen levels are certainly critical to survival, but remember that water temps and stratification have a role to play where DO is concerned also.

I can't see just haveing a few lakes w/25 limit, all Ind. lakes should start with same limits. Daily hopping from lake to lake happens more in the winter than summer so it could cause confusion or problems. Ex: Say Bass lake gets no panfish limit but Maxie gets a 25 gill limit. In the mourning I fish Bass lake and catch 30 gills, then I decide to go to Maxie. What do I do with the 30 gills I caught at Bass Lake. I can't leave them in bucket and take them out on Maxie w/25 gill limit. And if I leave them in my truck and the DNR wants to check my truck. How do I prove I caught the 30 gills on Bass Lake?
You don't. If you're traveling to a lake that has a limit in place, you make sure you drop those earlier gills off at home before you go.
.....It's posted at every public access not that big of a deal imo. If you get confused the officers will be glad to give you some up training for a fee lol.
Sprkplug, just tell them the truth... Fish are just like deer and many other things in life, the more you can control the environment with science and keep out the counter productive factors, the more likely you will realize the expected outcome.
what perch arent included?! (you catch that james? )25 gill limit, i can live with. not sure if it will do anything for size though. time will tell, if it makes law.when? cant see a ticket standing for a law that isnt in the rule book. so, 2016 at the soonest? mite start warning if passed in 15, though.now the walleye limit, im in favor of. that should lead to better size fillets. i would have felt even better about an 18 or 20" limit.what i wanna know is, can you eat a limit while your out there and still take a limit home? burp,#**&, pass the shrimp sauce.(PEOPLE, PLEASE DONT LEAVE TINY GILLS ON THE ICE. BE ECO FRIENDLY AND STOMP THEM AT THE HOLES EDGE. TY)
So you're saying after Bass lake I should drive 1 hour back home and drop the gills off, then drive another hour back up to Maxie? Don't think to many would do that. My point and example was a reply to Sprkplugs suggestion of starting off a few lakes w/limits. In my opinion I didn't agree with a few lakes, all should have the same gill limit. That way if I left one lake no matter what other lake I went to the gill limit would be the same at 25.
