How many Togue can be caught in rivers, streams, and brooks in the North and South Zones?

The regulation regarding Togue (also known as Lake Trout) in Maine specifies a limit of catching 2 fish per day in rivers, streams, and brooks within the North and South Zones, with a minimum length requirement of 18 inches. This size limit helps manage the population of Togue in these waters, ensuring that they reach maturity before being harvested.

This approach aligns with conservation practices aimed at maintaining healthy fish populations and ecosystem balance, as larger fish often contribute more to the spawning population than smaller ones. By having these specific size and catch limits, the regulations aim to promote responsible fishing practices and long-term sustainability of the fishery. Other options either present incorrect limits regarding the number of fish or do not align with the required size for keeping Togue in these designated zones.
