TEMPORARY POLICY:
Large Barracuda over 24″ long are exempt from Catch and Release fishing rules
“Catch and KEEP” should be applied to barracuda over 24 inches in length. This exemption is part of an ongoing effort to manage the barracuda population in the lake, specifically the very large barracuda. The nature and duration of this policy may be adjusted over time based on population estimates.
If you “catch and keep” a barracuda over 24 inches, take a picture and email it to elra@kaelepulupond.org along with the date and location of the catch. Ideally, the picture will clearly establish its length (include a measuring stick, etc.). This data will enable us to monitor the barracuda population and adjust policy as needed.
WARNING – Small craft operators such as kayak, canoes and SUPs should be aware that there are very large fish in the lake – some over 6 feet. Stay aware of your surroundings.
