(Walker, MN) - New regulations on Leech Lake will allow Minnesota anglers to keep a wider size range of walleye next spring. The D-N-R is removing the 20- to 26-inch protected slot and replacing it with a four-fish limit and one walleye can be more than 20 inches. The 17- to 28-inch protected slot limit for walleye in Namakan, Kabetogama, Sand Point, Little Vermilion and Crane lakes is now a protected slot limit of 18 to 26 inches. On Lake of the Woods, the DNR reduced the combined possession limit for sauger and walleye to six. Of that, no more than four may be walleye.
