Selective Harvest Fishing Improved technology and increased fishing have caused the quality of fishing to decline in many waters. Practicing “Selective Harvest” offers anglers an opportunity to take some fish home while releasing others back into the water to improve fishing quality. Here are some Black Crappie Rainbow Trout tips to use for effective Selective Harvest fishing: • Use barbless hooks. • Play the fish quickly and handle the fish carefully. • Never hold the fish by the eyes. • Use small pliers to remove hooks or cut the line if it is too deep. • Ease the fish back into the water, do not throw it back. Fish Consumption Advisory Walleye Blue Gill Sunfish Northern Pike The MN Department of Health gives advice for eating fish from over 300 locations. Meals of certain species from some waters should be limited because of possible contamination. In most cases anglers can safely eat any fish they choose to take home. However, the Health Department recommends that young children, pregnant women, women of childbearing age, and anglers who fish just one or two waters exclusively should space meals of fish over periods of time. The Mississippi, Minnesota, and St. Croix rivers are the primary resources of concern. Large Mouth Bass Reduce your Risk: Muskie (Hybrid) • Keep smaller fish. Younger fish have had less time to accumulate contaminates. Fishing piers are fun for the • Eat fish that have the least amount of contaminates, including perch, sunfish and crappies. Contaminates build up most in fatty fish such as carp, catfish, and lake trout. Predatory fish such as walleye whole family! and northern pike, that have reached larger sizes also are more likely to have increased contaminates. • Clean fish properly by removing as much fat as possible. This Small Mouth Bass Catfish reduces exposure.
