Walleyes
Anglers are allowed to possess a combined limit of six walleyes and sauger from Sand Point Lake. Only four of those may be walleyes. In addition, all walleyes that measure 17 inches to 28 inches must be released immediately. Anglers are allowed to have one walleye longer than 28 inches in their possession. The easiest way to tell the difference between walleyes and sauger is to look at the dorsal fin and the tail: walleyes have no spots on the dorsal fin and a white spot on the tail; sauger have spots on their dorsal fin and no spot on their tail.
Crappies
Anglers are allowed to possess a limit of 10 crappies of any size.
Bluegills
Anglers are allowed to possess a limit of 20 bluegills. There are no size restrictions.
Northern Pike
Anglers are allowed to possess a limit of three northern pike. They may not have more than one northern pike in their possession that is longer than 30 inches.
Smallmouth Bass
Anglers may possess a limit of six smallmouth bass. There are no size restrictions.
Other Limits
Some of the other fish in Sand Point Lake, and the possession limits for those fish, include Burbot (no limit); lake whitefish (no limit); smelt (no limit); rock bass (30); tullibee (no limit); white sucker (no limit); and yellow perch (20 per day, 40 in possession).
Warning
Anglers cannot use methods like explosives, guns, chemicals or electricity to take fish. Additionally, they cannot use whole or parts of game fish, carp or goldfish for bait.
Open-Water and Ice Fishing
Anglers may use only one fishing line at a time during the open-water season. The rules change when ice covers the lake. When anglers are fishing through the ice, they are allowed to use two lines, though both lines must be attended at all times.
