KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WATE) – Bass fisherman in Tennessee may have to change their approach to what they catch and keep starting next year.

The Tennessee Wildlife Resources Agency is accepting public comment on its proposed fishing regulations through Nov. 15. Seasonal regulation for Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass caught on Douglas Lake are among the proposals.

If approved, the catch and keep number of Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass for Douglas Lake would be reduced from 10 to 5. From June 1 to Sept. 30, the 5 fish limit would allow only one Largemouth or Smallmouth over 16 inches in length.

From Oct. 1 to May 31, there would be a 12-inch minimum length limit in addition to the 5-fish limit.
