Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a daily and a possession limit?
A daily limit is how many you may take in one day. A possession limit is the most you may have in your control at any time, often two or three days worth, even across multiple days of fishing or hunting.
Do limits combine across everyone in the group?
Sometimes. This tool multiplies the limit by the number of license holders, but many rules forbid one person carrying another person quota, so always confirm your local regulations.
Why can a multi-day trip be capped below the daily total?
Because the possession limit is a hard ceiling. Even if several daily limits add up to a larger number, you cannot hold more than the possession limit at once.
Is this legal authority?
No. It is an educational planning aid. The official bag and possession limits set by your state, provincial, or federal wildlife agency always govern what is legal.
