If I have my 5 year old grandson on my boat is he eligible for a conservation or sport limit or no fish at all
A CO explained to me once a few years back that the youngster must be able to actively fish and wind one in.
Nuff said.

Hope this doesn't come off the wrong way, but that's incorrect. Party fishing is technically illegal. A common misconception, particularly on a boat is that say, 3 people = 18 walleye......that's not really true. Each each person must land their iwn 6 fish. I know its a grey area but it's nit uncommon for a CO to ask 'who caught the most' ir something similar when checking a cooler and their actually fishing for that one excited person to volunteer that they caught the most (or more than their fair share).....personally, I say let the kid bring in as many as possible ???? Just be aware that some CO's can be sticklers, I've seen fines given out in relation to this topic before..Not a bad deal, wind in one and count for six. ????
