Does anyone know if you can keep a live bag with you and cull for size at the end of your fishing session? Or do you have to keep what you hook? It just says that your limit is 5.

Culling is not necessary as most of the fish are pretty much the same size. I wouldn't recommend even trying it since the last two times I was out there the DNR came by and checked everyone's license.
Trout are stressed out easily. If you do throw any back, more than likley they will die. If you catch your limit (5) keep them, take them home, give them to a neighbor, a relative. All the trout are from a trout farm. The money that you spend on the inland trout stamp, funds the stocking. I would say to give them to me, but that would be illegal. :wink: :wink:
