    It’s because of the people who don’t release fish.

    Because musky populations in MN have been steadily dropping over the past 10 years. Also, musky fishing opportunities are decreasing at high rate.

    I agree…

    The reason is because; people who were not “muskie fishermen” would catch and kill muskies in the winter so “muskie fishermen” got the rule changed so the season ends before ice fishing season begins.
