This type of violation usually involves taking or possessing more than the legal limit of fish or wildlife. If the daily limit of walleye is six per angler, but an angler catches and keeps more than six in one day, that angler is poaching.
Poaching is a serious and costly crime. It robs ethical anglers and hunters of game and fish, and robs all citizens of our valuable wildlife resources. Poaching can be reduced if concerned citizens report the signs of suspected illegal activity.
If you see or suspect someone of poaching or otherwise abusing a natural resource, please call 1-877-TIPS-MNR (847-7667) toll-free any time to report a violation.
