Strawberry - New Regs Effecting Fishing?

[fisherman]

It does seem that the crowds are alot thinner this year. I'm happy to see the fish are alot heavier, longer, and finally will have a chance to grow bigger. First time there since last ice, last friday out of 40 fish caught, 2 were under 15 inches, alot were close to 22 inches, most were 18-19 inches. Its very exciting anticipating the future of the berry. In a few years it will almost be like the old berry again with giant fish. Be safe and fish on!
