The Big Fish

By Liam Erickson

In the future, I wish you could keep every fish you catch. That law really needs to be changed. Once I caught a walleye in Lake Vermilion. I love walleye! I had to throw it back because it was too big and they have breeding laws. I was pretty sad. I’d like those breeding laws to change. I think I should get to keep every fish I catch unless it’s a baby!

Fishing isn’t very exciting when you have to throw big, beautiful fish back into the water. I’d like to talk to whoever is in charge of these breeding laws. I’m just a kid after all, I should get to enjoy the fish I catch. Time to contact the DNR!
