Kentucky Angler Caught with 9 Undersized Largemouth Bass
In late August of this year, Officer Sgt. Vincent and Warden D. Berry of the Kentucky Department of Fish & Wildlife Resources were patrolling near Barren River Lake, east of Bowling Green, Kentucky. When they came across a Kentucky angler in possession of nine undersized largemouth bass during a fishing regulation compliance inspection. Five of the undersized largemouth bass were able to be returned to the lake unharmed. The subject received citations for four counts of size limit violations for the four that were not returned to the lake.

Additionally, Barren River Lake has its own Special Fishing Regulations with the minimum size limit for Largemouth Bass and Smallmouth Bass set at 15 inches. The daily take limit for the two species of bass remains at 6 fish per day.

It should be noted that, while the Kentucky Angler in this case exceeded the daily limit of 6 bass, the officers showed leniency by allowing the five bass to be returned to the lake. It should be noted that with the current statutes that anglers, even if fishing for more than a 24-hour period, cannot have more than a daily limit of processed or unprocessed fish with them if they are fishing, on the shoreline, or on the water.
