A friend and I were talking about this topic and thought I’d post this. Not that anyone would be actually keeping smallmouth….unless it’s maybe a state record!! but just a reminder that you can’t keep smallmounth (or even possess for a while to weigh). Season closed Sept 10. The regs state that the season is open to catch, but no possession after 9/10.
Here is a link to the MN DNR.

Just a reminder in case you catch the state record when trolling for walleyes!
