Upper Red Lake regulations

 

CURRENT SPECIAL REGULATIONS (LAST REVIEWED 07JAN2024)

This lake has special fishing regulations that differ from statewide or border water regulations for those species identified below and take precedence. Unless specified below, all general regulations, season dates, limits, possession, transportation and border water regulations apply.

  • Northern Pike: All from 30-40″ must be immediately released. Possession limit three, only one over 40″.
  • Walleye: From November 1, 2023 through February 25, 2024, the daily and possession limit is four. Only one over 17″ allowed in possession.
  • A person’s statewide bag limit may not include more than current bag limit of Red Lake walleye
  • State anglers: The actual boundary is not a true north-south line. To simplify, it’s recommended that anglers stay east of the longitudinal coordinate of 94 deg. 43′ 12.0″ to ensure they are on state waters.
  • Those portions of Red Lake located within the Red Lake Indian Reservation are closed to non-band members except by special authorization of the tribal council.
  • The fish carcass retention requirements are still in effect. See page 37 of the Minnesota Fishing Regulations booklet
