    Does anyone know where I can find the annual catch for the rivers in MN and the border waters of MN and WI?

    My google isn’t very sharp today.

    Hey Beeks! I tried my hand at the Google and all I could get was a blurb in this article:

    DNR link

    You were mentioned in the article, so who knows how credible it is. This guy says only 2500lbs were harvested from MN/WI border waters. Maybe if you know him, you can get his source?

    Sorry BK! I thought your request might have something to do with bow fishing!

    How about those commercial netters who like to bow hunt them in the nest to harvest them?

    I fixed your mug shot Randy. Now could you tell me who let you out of the walleye forum? You know what all the doctors said about stress at your age.

    That’s the place to go for the border water data. I might be receiving the St Croix stuff starting next year, but, this is just for commercial fishermen licensed in MN. And as far as MN commercial fishermen go, they are allowed up to 100 lbs per day. WI has no such limit. There is no commercial catfish harvest allowed on inland waters.

    Thanks Joel,

    I’m sending out emails to a few other places tonight.

    Been kinda busy cleaning out the kitchen sink drain lines.
