Some interesting things. Baptiste for instance. This might give another argument for having smaller sizes slot limits.

Wow that's a cool app.  Crazy.  Not what I was expecting at all.  Here I always heard that Moose lake was bad for mercury and this app says it's not really that bad.  The lake lake area lakes like Elinor and pinehurst are way worse then I ever imagined.  I new Helena and ironwood weren't great.  Guess it's the whole area.  Wonder why I never heard of that before.  I've been eating pinehurst walleye and pike for many years.  I wonder how accurate this is.  Like why isn't it I  the regs?  I'll have to check the newest regs now.

I agree with you completely. Always new of Helena etc. Never new Pinehurst or Baptiste  were as bad as it was.
