Culling - Limits - Fishing

Group: rec.outdoors.fishing.bass Date: Tue, May 8, 2007, 7:47am (CDT-2)

It was explained to me once that if you have a tournament limit in the
boat and you catch a fish you must immediatley stop fishing and cull
back down to the tournament limit. I can understand that if fishing solo
or fishing a seperated pro am format since most tournament limits I have
run across are one less than the legal possession limit.
However in a team shared weight format the legal possession limit for
the team is usually more than twice the tournament limit. I was told
that in this circumstance both anglers must stop fishing until they have
culled back down to a tournament limit.
Is this standard?

That is how most team touraments are...I have heard of disqualifications
when the other team member didn't quit casting.

Interesting situation. You have actually broken the law if you have a
limit of fish in the livewell and catch another fish. Between the time
you land the fish and release the culled fish, you have overlimits.

I don't think that's the case. For instance in mst Az tournaments the limit
is five, but the state possession limit is six per individual. It is done
that way on purpose.
